Companion, Natural Horsemanship Training, Rescue, Started Under Saddle

Additional Comments

We are a non -profit horse rescue and sanctuary in Grass Valley, CA. We are seeking a loving, forever home for Star Light
(AKA Flame), a 17 year old Appaloosa mare. She was born at our rescue in 2007. Her dam was a PMU mare and Star light was her 7th foal. They were able to spend 5 years together in our herd before mama crossed over.

Flame is quiet, calm and steady. She is a red dun, 16HH, and about 1000 lbs. She is healthy and sound.... (read more) She was raised in a herd environment but is a polite and well-mannered horse and respects and listens to her humans. She loves to be brushed and pampered, but her one quirk is she isn’t fond of water. When the other horses are getting hose downs in summer, she exits the pool party.

She was started under saddle two weeks ago and she did very well. She had five training sessions and learned quickly. Due to circumstances beyond our control her trainer was unable to continue providing lessons. She is currently available for adoption and is ready to continue her training.

This is an adoption transaction with a NO BREEDING CLAUSE and a RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL CLAUSE. We are looking for a home where she has adequate room to run and play, shelter and at least one other horse for company. She would not be happy in a boarding facility. She is used to plenty of space, electric fences and equine companionship, and human attention. Adoption fee$750.

She eats alfala and some teff grass hay. She gets vitamin/mineral supplements. She is an easy keeper.

She comes with a fly mask, a rain sheet and winter blanket.
