Say hello to Palmer!
Palmer is a 12hh, 9 year old, piebald cob mare, who is ready to find a home as a non-ridden companion.
Palmer is an extremely sweet natured mare, she is good to do in all ways, bathing, leading, and grooming. Palmer would like someone who has time to take her for walks, spend time grooming and offering cuddles.
Palmer loves nothing more than a fuss and cuddle and will seek human interaction out. Palmer will follow the team around; wanting to have all the attention, falling asleep for grooming as she loves being groomed.
Palmer also enjoys in hand walks. Palmer has a very loving nature, and is always seeking affection!
