Much to my dismay I have to place my super sweetheart! This gorgeous 3 yr. old... never raced ...he fractured his knee in his last work before his first race...(last thurs.) He will be completely sound walk , trot , canter, (probably no jumping) in 6 months. I will gift contrqact him to a perfect home asap as my partners are unwilling to pay for screw surgery to try to race. The surgery is only 1,500 if anyone is interested he would recover to be a jumper. His sire stands for 45,000... and with good reason! This guy has a temperment to die for! he will excell at ANY disipline! I have used him as a babysitter for all my 2 yr. olds! No buck, bolt, rear, bite, kick or ever pull! he gives to the bit moves off your leg, and is very brave... for a young guy... no spook! he is a gem!!! If i could afford to keep him as a pony horse i would forever!!! i have probably sat on 3,500 horses in my life and he is a keeper!!! Please help me find him a home! Reina @ 925 639 4001

Reina, What kind of recovery will he need for the next 6 months? Stall only/stall + handwalk/pasture/ . No, *I* can't take him, but it may help to know what he will need.

Probably stall for the next 2 weeks... then 24X 36 at most for next 2 months the slow , controlled work after that... no more than trot for next 60 days... I think this guy would thrive on being ridden at a slow pace in that time... super smart! He laid down the first couple days and got up only to eat poop drink and pp... then laid right back down!!! He is one of a kind!

Spicy,
You might want to post this on the rescue/rehome section of BAEN as well. That section seems to get a lot of traffic.
If you have some pictures, I would be happy to circulate them amongst the dressage/pony club people I know.
