❤️ Meet Cupid ❤️
Hi, my name is Cupid, and I am a 29-year-old paint gelding with a heart full of stories to share. I came to SDEC about eight years ago after being discovered at the barn of well-known Olympian dressage rider London Gray, who helped train me. My owner’s dad saw something special in me right away and knew I belonged with his daughter. For many wonderful years, I showed, taught, and helped my young rider grow in confidence, patience, and love for horses. Those were some of the best years of my life. When my owner’s dad passed away, Ms. Shawna kindly opened the door for me to spend the rest of my years at Hi Hopes, where I could continue being cared for, loved, and appreciated. Today, I am lightly used in the walk/trot lesson program, and I am proud to be back doing what I do best: teaching children how to ride. When I am not in lessons, I spend my time relaxing with my best buddy and enjoying the peaceful life I deserve. It truly does not get much better than that
