This is Bright Eyes, she is 16 yrs old. We have had her since Nov. 08. She arrived with Sophie. We were informed that she had been abused. She once ran from you when approaching to catch her up, now if you approach her slowly she will stay in one spot. She was terrified of humans, but has since come around. Loud noises and rapid hand movements make her nervous. When handling her one must be quiet and speak softly. She responds to a gentle touch. We were informed that she is rideable, but we have yet to saddle her. We have been working with her other fears first, additionally we do not know of anyone who is tiny enough and has the experience we think will be required to get on her. If you are seeking a lovely pasture pet then you may want to consider her. She can be aggressive with other horses. Lil Pony with Big Horse Attitude. If you are interested in Bright Eyes please do not hesitate to contact us. Bright Eyes will require an experienced handler and rider.
She had a bath Saturday evening and stood. She gives her feet very well, and trailers with no problem.
