Corazon is a handsome Appaloosa gelding who was returned to Longmeadow in September 2024 when his owner could no longer care for him. After his routine 30-day quarantine ended, this stunning gelding was able to be reevaluated by our training team.
Upon evaluation, our trainer found that Corazon was more of a forward ride. He had no problem moving fast – in fact, she spent a lot of time trying to hold him back. The man just wants to go! He is soft in the bridle and rides off leg. Although he tends to have moments of stubbornness under saddle, Corazon can be redirected by a confident, knowledgeable rider who isn’t afraid to send him forward during his little “temper tantrums.” He truly enjoys having a job and is an intelligent horse. He will need a handler and rider who isn’t afraid to correct certain behaviors, such as pushiness on the ground. He will also need an adopter who can work with him through the occasional spook. Although mighty, this gaited gelding can be a scaredy cat sometimes! At the Ranch, Corazon has been ridden both outside and in the indoor arena. He has been ridden both alone and with others. He tends to need a little more confidence from his rider when being ridden alone.
Corazon is good for grooming, tacking up, and standing tied. He also stands well for the farrier and vet. He is not a fan of fly spray or trailer loading. Corazon has a silly, endearing personality. While he also isn’t the biggest fan of getting bathed, he does like being sprayed in the mouth and playing with the hose. He also LOVES to eat. Because of this, he will need a grazing muzzle or dry lot at his future home. At the Ranch, he is on a daily dose of Thyro-L to maintain a healthy weight.
Adoption Fee: $2000 Height: 14HH Maximum Carrying Weight (includes tack and rider): 190lbs
