SHADOW

Listed 2/5/2025
My mother passed away suddenly on January 5th of this year from an aneurysm.  She left behind her beloved Morgan Horse of 25 years, a 34 year old mare named Shadow.  Shadow is sweet and great with kids, my 73 year old mother in law was still riding her up to her death. My father cannot afford to keep the horse as he is losing her social security. 
 
We do not want to put Shadow down and are looking for a place where she could live out her final years and hopefully be of service to kids or in any sort of therapy capacity – or belong to someone who would like to ride gently. Below is some additional information about her:
  • She is currently at Sabills Morgan Horse Farm in Southbury, CT.  We would be happy to pay for transport.   
  • She was much beloved and well cared for, she is up to date on farrier (she doesn’t wear shoes, the farrier trimmed her two weeks ago) and vet.  She has Cushings and is on Prascend. We are happy to pay for this medication going forward.
  • She still has all her teeth (they were floated regularly). 
  • We would also donate all her blankets, gear, tack (she was being ridden as I mentioned), there’s a brand new blanket for spring.
  • She was a 2006 Level 2 Morgan Dressage Champion, and has a bronze medal from the American Dressage Society.  Apparently she can still do a lot of those level 2 moves.

MERLIN

Listed 12/10/2024
*companion/ non-riding home only*
 
Merlin is a 9 year old 16.1 hand saddlebred gelding looking for a soft landing in a companion home. He is unable to be ridden at this time d/t mild kissing spine (would be happy to discuss more in depth with serious inquires only, recent X-rays and vet work-up available). Merlin is an easy keeper, UTD on vaccines, teeth and feet. Stands for the farrier and vet. He will load easily into the trailer but is anxious when trailering. He’s happy in 24/7 turnout but doesn’t mind being in a stall. Does well with mares and geldings. Middle of the pecking order. He does crib and he wears a cribbing collar that does help some. Merlin is very intelligent and picks up new tasks easy. He is a tad high strung and can be pushy but corrects easily. He does get nervous is new situations and requires a handler he can trust but will settle in quickly. He is not a kid’s horse. He is very willing and would make a great liberty partner for someone or just a great pasture mate! Located in New Salem, MA.
