Bio: Poppie’s Ruby was removed from her home by law enforcement, and the courts awarded
her to BEHS along with her herdmates.
History: : Nothing is known of Poppie’s Ruby’s history.
Health/Lameness: Poppie's Ruby foundered sometime shortly after coming to
BEHS (a process that likely had begun before she was removed from her negligent owners). She's been in rehabilitation and is doing well. She's
currently wearing front shoes and showing no signs of lameness.
Abilities: Her foster home has ridden her at the walk and trot and says she
has a light mouth, knows leg and weight cues and is wonderful to ride. She's currently wearing shoes on her front feet, and she's doing well. We've put her up
for light to moderate riding (no jumping, gaming, endurance riding) due to her previous founder history. She's as sweet as she is pretty, and she's going to make someone a very lucky adopter.
Other: From her foster home: "Poppie's Ruby is a gentle, nurturing, loving
mare. She is full of life, and you can see her heart in her eyes. She enjoys a good scratch just behind her ears at the top of her neck - so much that
she starts leaning to the side you are scratching! When I bring her food into her pen, although she meets me right at the gate, she backs up to let
me in, then trots in circles around me (mindful of my space) all the way to the feeders! Sometimes she trots right over to the feeders and nickers at
me, as if to say 'hurry up slowpoke!'" |
