Age: 22 yrs	Sex: Mare	Height:	Weight:
Color: Sorrel
Breed: Arabian
Registered Association: yes		Reg #:
Abilities: Broke to ride
ADOPTED – Thank you!		Location:
Description: Sirius and Cara are companions who have been together for 10 years and would like to be adopted together. These horses are great to be around. Both are gentle and would make good pets for young children. Both are broke and it would seem that they have been seriously ridden in their earlier years because of the bridle marks across the nose of each. These horses are not pushy and tend to stay out of troubles way — like from larger horses. They have been ridden recently are not subject to bucking or acting up. Really, they are very sweet – probably Sirius is more apt to come to you before Cara but both are right there wanting attention. Would trust them with children. They stand very still for the farrier.

Geronimo has been ridden in the past, but has been out to pasture for awhile, so will need a refresher course. He requires an intermediate to experienced rider. At his current foster home he is in a herd of miniature horses and donkeys and gets along fine with them. He in fact acts like the daddy. He will wait to be put up until he is sure that all the little ones are snug and warm in their beds for the night. He has good ground manners, but you might have to remind him to pay attention to you. When he is in a new situation, he likes to look around before you can get his attention. He is laid back under halter, easy to catch if you do not show him the halter but run your hand up his neck with the rope. Once you put the rope around his neck, he will lower his head for the halter. Once he has been retrained or refreshed, he will make a great trail horse or anything his adopter would like to do with him. He is stocky, agile and beautiful. Showing the grace of his breed Granny, Sassy and the donkey Tonto were rescued together. Granny was extremely emaciated and was still nursing her 3 year old baby, Sassy. Granny is now healthy and at her ideal weight. She is ready for adoption. Izzy was a Texas A & M polo pony. She fractured her cannon bone and although she is healed and isn’t lame, she cannot be used for polo anymore. She’d make a great kids lead line or walk only horse. She’s well trained and very sweet. As you can see she’s very tall!
