First required post for Team Zesta!
Zesta came to me not even halter broke & did NOT want to get on that trailer.
In our time together she is now able to be lead softly and willingly anywhere!
She loads and ties on a trailer like a pro.
She LOVES obstacles & so far will walk over anything.
She can move her shoulders, haunches, and is starting to pick up side passing.
She gets along great with other horses.
She absolutely LOVES bath time & water.
I think she will be a ‘trough diver’ in the future if she ever figures that out. 😂
She can be caught out in the field.
She is very very curious & loves people.
If she sees anyone outside she will go up to the fence and patiently wait to be scratched.
Physically she is finally starting to look better!
Soon after I picked her up we started off battling lice- then once she got over the lice we had suspicions she had some ulcers. Ulcer-guard is on board & on top of that we had her teeth looked at. Zesta was struggling to gain weight & she would drop a lot of grain & not finish her meals.
Since having her teeth checked (she had some pretty sharp points) she is eating MUCH better & we are trending upwards!!!
Now that she’s starting to gain some weight I will be focusing more on some muscle gaining work & getting her looking her best.
She will soon be learning to ground drive and then I have some fun adventures in store for her.
Be on the look out for Zesta this summer.
‼️She is need of a forever home! 🏠
She is a very sweet mare, right now I’m going to say an intermediate/advanced placement would be the best suit for her.
Someone working closely with a trainer would be a good fit as well.
Zesta, as sweet & calm as she is- is still a baby! She needs someone who can clearly & confidently take her on in her next steps of life after the competition. 🙂🤠
