Description:
|
Close is a very good mover, known around the barn as a well behaved boy. He is a mild cribber, but a strap takes care of that. Close has a bit of a left ankle from an old surgery to remove a chip when he was younger, but is sound on it. He has had a good bit of turnout is quiet outside. See his pictures at www.LeightonFarm.com or call me for more information!

Books on Retraining Horses
We recommend anyone giving away a horse, whether to a private individual or a welfare/rescue
organization, learn as much as possible about that person or group prior to giving
the horse away. There have been unscrupulous individuals and groups who take horses
under the pretense of giving them good homes, then sell them for slaughter. (See
article
"Rescue Highlights
Danger of Free Horses".)
The article
"Horse Rescue
Organizations: Questions to Ask" offers some tips on making sure the person
or group who takes your horse has good intentions.
