Little Richard got a much needed bath today. After a long winter and having suffered from severe rain rot and neglect, I know he enjoyed a good scrubbing from volunteers Mandy Preston and Jill Duncan. Thank you ladies, you did a great job!
Richard is seeking a special home, since he was a stallion most of his life. Someone familiar with the behavior of a newly gelded stallion and would not be intimidated by that, would be great. A separate area needs to be available, although that may not be necessary as time goes by. He is settling down a lot since he was gelded almost four months ago, but since it is breeding season, he finds it difficult to think like a gelding at times. But he is very respectful of the fenceline and will graze next to mares quietly. He loves attention from people and enjoys being groomed. He ties, loads, is good with the farrier and vet and can be ridden at a walk or trot. He is a great horse and we are hoping that we can find someone that will enjoy him as much as we do. We wish we could keep him around, but he must move on, so we can help others out there that are in trouble. If you would like to foster or adopt Little Richard, please contact us.
