DEPUTY - 3 yrs old, 15.2hh Overo Paint gelding. Very solidly built. NO papers. He can be haltered, led and handled. He needs to be started properly. When he is not in the halter he will follow us all over and nuzzle our hair and is friendly, once the halter goes on his demeanor changes, he becomes watchful and wary. He will relax somewhat if you stroke his head and are kind. It appears that people gave him no reason to trust them, we were told someone tried to ride him and he bucked, he acts like he had some rough handling but responded to us. He does need to have his feet done and wasn't wild about them being handled at this point. However after we worked with him, we would find he would come up and gently touch us with his muzzle, so he likes the good guys! For Adoption Only.

This handsome man is built to do anything! Plus you can register him.
He is the perfect age to start!
You don't need to fix him, just love him and when he trusts you, WOW, he will take you places.
I hope the remark that he bucked isn't scarring people off. Most horse's first started do buck. It's only out of being unsure. Lot's of trail riding or beach riding (in the deeper sand) are also great tools for starting these younger ones.
If you send him to a trainer, can you imagine what you'll get when he gets back home?

I was looking at CoPilot yesterday and this guy just followed us around the pen wanting some rubs and carrots. And rub and feed we did and he loved it. I think with some groundwork and a tranquil place he will be your grateful buddy. He would make a great trail horse - solid and dependable.

I'm surprised this guy is still there. With starting him over with groundwork, maybe Lyons or Parelli type training, this one should be fine. Maybe he was cowboyed or rushed before. He is young, beautiful, and has tons of potential for a lifetime of great times. Can someone please give him the lifetime so he can live some great times?

We had some people visit the lot today from the Seattle area. They wanted to meet Deputy themselves before making any decisions about whether or not to adopt. Once they spent some time around him, took into consideration their current situation and other horses, they realized this boy needed to be a part of their family. I commend them for thinking long and hard on this major decision. So, congratulations to both Deputy and his new family!! Another success story!

So excited that Rebecca couldnt sit still long enough to write this message. I had to do it for her. ( I'm her other half, Dock) So she will keep you all updated on him and again we want to thank Ryan and Heidi- who we met today. These gals really care about these horses. Every one involved in this group deserves a big thank you. I gotta say I was a little skeptical about how this whole thig worked. Now I know you all are doing a very good thing for these horses.

It is unbelievable how a horse this sweet ends up in a place like the lot. I am going out to give him one last hug for the night. Can't thank Sam, Ryan, Heidi and all the others at the lot enough for they've done. I think this horse is a God send for me! Also- thank you Elaine for looking after him at Sam's place.

Deputy impresses me more each day! He has settled in well and although he has been introduced to my others, has not been turned out with them yet. He has obviously has some round pen work and is very responsive to touch and pressure. He is easily moving forward, backward and sideways with fairly light hand pressure. I have mostly worked with him loose in the round pen and given him the option to go away from me if he wants. This is a method I haven't really used before- since I never had a decent round pen to work in. He does get scared and "snorty" at times but will always come back to me for comfort. He is teaching me so much!! He loves all the attention he can get and greets every who passes his pen. I still haven't figured out how the heck he ended up where he did- he is such a sweetheart! Working on sacking out with blankets and ropes now and hope to start loungework next. Will try to post pictures soon- I have tons of video so far but forget to take pictures! Also my paint mare is in love with him and it is causing her old boyfriend (24 yo thoroughbred) much distress!! He is constantly trying to herd her away from Deputies pen- it is so funny!! I guess us girls are always causing the poor boys stress in one way or another!! Anyways- LOVE THIS HORSE, could be my best horse decision so far!

I have popped into this sight at least a thousand times today checking on This absolutely drop dead gorgeous, chiseled muscle, fat butt work of perfection !!!!
There has got to be someone to take this guy home and make him the wonderful partner that he was built to be.
Hurray, hurray before I do something totally stupid, like drive all the way to Washington State from Florida!!!!!!!

This handsome man is built to do anything! Plus you can register him.
He is the perfect age to start!
You don't need to fix him, just love him and when he trusts you, WOW, he will take you places.
I hope the remark that he bucked isn't scarring people off. Most horse's first started do buck. It's only out of being unsure. Lot's of trail riding or beach riding (in the deeper sand) are also great tools for starting these younger ones.
If you send him to a trainer, can you imagine what you'll get when he gets back home?

I was looking at CoPilot yesterday and this guy just followed us around the pen wanting some rubs and carrots. And rub and feed we did and he loved it. I think with some groundwork and a tranquil place he will be your grateful buddy. He would make a great trail horse - solid and dependable.

Guys, just a quick plug We saw Deputy at the lot today when we picked up Monty, and the pix don't do him justice: he's a really handsome dude! He's also a total sweetheart--came right up to see us and hung out for rubs. He seems smart and friendly, and I wished we could bring him home too--he's going to make someone a GREAT horse!!!

I'm surprised this guy is still there. With starting him over with groundwork, maybe Lyons or Parelli type training, this one should be fine. Maybe he was cowboyed or rushed before. He is young, beautiful, and has tons of potential for a lifetime of great times. Can someone please give him the lifetime so he can live some great times?

Ryan Wrote ~
We had some people visit the lot today from the Seattle area. They wanted to meet Deputy themselves before making any decisions about whether or not to adopt. Once they spent some time around him, took into consideration their current situation and other horses, they realized this boy needed to be a part of their family. I commend them for thinking long and hard on this major decision. So, congratulations to both Deputy and his new family!! Another success story!

Yep! It's us! We are the lucky ones! We drove over to see Deputy and it just felt right- he needed to come home with us. We are so excited. So excited that Rebecca couldnt sit still long enough to write this message. I had to do it for her. ( I'm her other half, Dock) So she will keep you all updated on him and again we want to thank Ryan and Heidi- who we met today. These gals really care about these horses. Every one involved in this group deserves a big thank you. I gotta say I was a little skeptical about how this whole thig worked. Now I know you all are doing a very good thing for these horses.

DEPUTY IS HOME! He was such a great boy for the 4 hour ride home. I can't beleive how well he did. Settled right into his new surroundings here. It is unbelievable how a horse this sweet ends up in a place like the lot. I am going out to give him one last hug for the night. Can't thank Sam, Ryan, Heidi and all the others at the lot enough for they've done. I think this horse is a God send for me! Also- thank you Elaine for looking after him at Sam's place. You all are so GREAT!

Deputy impresses me more each day! He has settled in well and although he has been introduced to my others, has not been turned out with them yet. He has obviously has some round pen work and is very responsive to touch and pressure. He is easily moving forward, backward and sideways with fairly light hand pressure. I have mostly worked with him loose in the round pen and given him the option to go away from me if he wants. This is a method I haven't really used before- since I never had a decent round pen to work in. He does get scared and "snorty" at times but will always come back to me for comfort. He is teaching me so much!! He loves all the attention he can get and greets every who passes his pen. I still haven't figured out how the heck he ended up where he did- he is such a sweetheart! Working on sacking out with blankets and ropes now and hope to start loungework next. Will try to post pictures soon- I have tons of video so far but forget to take pictures! Also my paint mare is in love with him and it is causing her old boyfriend (24 yo thoroughbred) much distress!! He is constantly trying to herd her away from Deputies pen- it is so funny!! I guess us girls are always causing the poor boys stress in one way or another!! Anyways- LOVE THIS HORSE, could be my best horse decision so far!
