Say hello to River!
River is a 2 year old, 12.1hh, piebald, trotter x, mare who is ready to find her home as a non-ridden companion.
River is a very sweet natured mare who is a little unsure on life, she is looking for an experienced fosterer who is patient and confident to help her push through her insecurities and who has previously worked with horses who need guidance.
River is looking for a companion she can live with who is slightly older than her to help her mature.
River would thrive from a constant routine with her companion and her fosterer and is happy to live somewhere with good grazing as she doesn’t hold weight easily.
River would also enjoy in hand walks to gain confidence in her environment.
River is a young age, she can be unsure of new surroundings and would need a confident handler. River is a curious mare who benefits from a constant routine and interaction with her new fosterer on a daily basis to be able to settle and get to know her surroundings to know everything isn’t as scary as it seems!
