A New Horse
For a little while at least.
His name is Rusty, Rusty Radiance if you want to get all fancy and formal. He is a rescue picked up by Forever Morgans from the Enumclaw sale barn kill pen. I had been desperately craving a horse to train, I don’t miss starting colts that was just hard work. But one horse to get going in as long a time as needed, that’s my kind of fun. My mom, on whom I can blame almost anything horse related, found him and told me about his plight.
He was going to be shipped to slaughter the next day, Forever Morgans needed a foster home for him before they could bail him out. I did not need another horse, cravings for training or not. So after thinking about it for awhile I asked my husband if I could take him and he didn’t see a problem. I figure I get around the not needing another horse thing by not owning him, he’s just here to visit for awhile.
Of course I’m blogging about him, that’s half the fun, just not here. I added a link to his blog in the links ( Rescuing Rusty) or you can find it here.
are you at all interested in him? Do you think one day he might be yours for real?
I like him a lot. As of right now he\’s still just a likable, very nice little horse who\’s passing through. Maybe if he\’s around long enough and I get some training in him that will change but I can\’t justify the expense of another horse right now.
Good job he will thank you one day maby
I agree he will thank you. Sad to see such a young horse in bad circumstances. I am hoping he will stay!
