These three super nice horses are available for adoption through Mississippi Horses. Here’s a little information about each one! 👇👇👇
🇺🇸”Olympia”🇺🇸:
Olympia is a 6 year old grade Paint mare standing a hair over 15 hands tall. She was originally chosen back In January of this year for the Heart of the Horse Trainers Challenge as a blank slate. Fast foward to over 100 days of hard work, and dedication into training this mare unfortunately Olympia and her trainer Vera couldn’t make it back to the competition. I was able to take Olympia and continue her education and journey of becoming a solid partner since her trainer had other promises lined up after the competition and that we live close to one another. Olympia has a solid foundation under her belt, great ground manners, a start into liberty work, and is continually gaining experience. This mare has a super nice w/t/c and travels so smooth and has an even better woah and back by just body language and telling her commands. Olympia is soft, easy to move off of your leg, and is always ready to work and is looking for what’s next. Over the past month I’ve personally taken her on trails for miles and miles. Olympia would make a super cool playday horse, and or would excel well in ranch/trail classes. I could see her doing any discipline that someone would like to finish her out in or just be a trail riders dream!
🌵”Cayenne”🌵(ADOPTED)
Cayenne is a 9 year old grade sorrel quarter horse gelding standing 14 hands tall. Cayenne has been in the rescue for a handful of years and has had multiple different trainers, riders, and handlers. Cayenne is a sweet fellow once you get to know him. At first, Cayenne seemed to be more independent and didn’t really care about much or wanting to depend on a human connection. But that changed quickly and he has turned into a puppy dog and his connection with us is continuing to grow. From hollering out in the field to be caught, to being the first one to greet you in the barn at feeding. This fellow has had exposure to many things before coming here but we have taken him out on the trails, ridden in the arena, obstacles, rode out in the pastures to check and move cattle, and have started tracking the dummy. Cayenne is a fun, punchy more style of ride but will easily walk down the trail on a loose rein. If you are looking for a cowboy style pony that has grit to him here he is! He will w/t/c, work off of leg, stop, back, stands for farrier, stands for bathing, load, unload, etc. He would make a jam up little sorting and or penning horse!
🪩”Magic Mike”🪩
Magic Mike is a 10 year old spotted gaited gelding that stands 14.2 hands tall. Mike was also an option back in early January for the Heart of the Horse Trainers challenge, no one picked him so he rolled into a “Diamond” project which once again no one took him on. Mike has been with Mississippi rescue for awhile after being saved from a bad situation. He was a stallion still when they brought him in and had zero to no “social skills” with other equine. He was handled and was started on basic skills within the rescue so when I brought him home in May he was ready to continue learning and began his training journey. Mike seemed to be a more unsure and worried fellow more than anything. But in no time he started to gain confidence and really came out of his shell. This horse is going to be one super cool horse with more time. He’s a unique mover and travels the ground with purpose. Mike has a little bit of a goofy personality but I sure enjoy having him around and riding his neat gaits. Mike knows the basics under saddle and on the ground, has been on multiple trails rides, and is gaining exposure and experience daily. I believe Magic Mike could go in any direction and has a head full of sense. He pastures really well in our gelding field and is easy to handle.
