 Molly
Breed: Quarter Horse
Sex: Mare
Age: 25
yrs
Weight: 835
Height: 15.1
Location:
Pipe Creek, TX
Adoption Fee:
$200
Temperament:
Molly is a complete
dream. A total
babysitter type horse.
She loves attention
especially the kind she
gets from children's
hands. Anytime someone
is in the barn she comes
nickering with a need to
know if she can have
some of the attention
too. When her foster mom
rides another horse in
the pasture Molly
follows in line as if
she is waiting her turn.
Physical problems / health issues:
Molly is getting a
little stiff in her hind
end with her age.
Interaction with horses:
Molly spent a great deal
of time in a mixed herd
at HFH's central ranch
before entering her
current foster home and
did well. She was in the
middle of the herd. She
is not aggressive but
still stands up for
herself against her
foster's pushy gelding.
Interaction with people:
Molly is as friendly as
they come. She loves her
people and readily
approaches when she sees
you out in the pasture,
as a matter of fact she
will come across the
pasture when she sees
you at the barn. She
loves to be petted and
brushed. She interacts
great with kids.
History:
Molly was donated in
lieu of a seizure. She
was very underweight
when she arrived.
Training / abilities: Molly is
ridable but can be
ridden only by a light
rider and at a walk only
due to her age. Her
ideal job would be
offering a lead-line
rides to children. She
is a little out of
practice and will dance
a little when cinching
and toss her head when
taking the bit. This is,
however, improving each
time she is tacked up as
she gets back in the
swing of things. Once
tacked she's an old pro.
Experience level required to work with this horse:
Molly is well suited for
a beginner and even
children on the ground.
She is very mindful of
your space and of
children when they are
in hers! In saddle she
would be fit for a
beginner to intermediate
rider. See comments on
training/abilities
above.
