Take a look at this girl’s beautiful floating trot! Just click here to see the video.
Briar is a very smart and loving girl, super friendly and enjoys spending time with people. She is a very willing partner and is turning into a trail horse deluxe. She is not spooky and if she does startle, she recovers quickly. Here’s a summary of the good and not-so-good with Briar.
Good:
Not so good:
Briar currently rides in a sweet mouth, single-jointed, eqq-butt snaffle, which she seems to like the best. She requires an intermediate rider with trainer due to the short length of training.
Follow #hopteambriar to keep up with her progress.
Adoption Info:
Adoption fees may be outdated, as a horse may have moved into training, so check with us on most current fee. Horses adopted are typically up to date on vaccines, dental floats, farrier care and all vet needs.
Horses are typically located in the Appalachian area, but please inquire about a horse's specific location when you apply!
We are looking to adopt to safe homes.
A history of good horsemanship, the ability to provide sufficient care with good vet, farrier and peer references are important. If you are a first-time horse owner, we will require you to board at a facility for the first year while you learn more about care. We encourage everyone to take advantage of riding lessons.
Foal adoptions require previous, established experience with youngsters.
Our adoption process makes sure you get the right horse for you – it is a no-fail process for finding the right match.
