About Elliot

Elliot was part of a large neglect case. He was removed in a joint effort between BEHS and law enforcement and then placed with BEHS by the courts.

History

Elliot was not handled prior to coming to BEHS. Nothing else is known of his history.

Health / Lameness

None known.

Evaluation and Training

Elliot was not handled before coming to BEHS, but his foster home taught him to wear a halter, lead, be caught, stand for the farrier and be a good equine citizen.  He spent April and May 2012 in training and was walking, trotting and cantering under saddle in a round pen.  He went to a new foster home in June 2012 and was ridden by their kids in parades and at other events.  He was too green for complete novices, but he’s got a lot of potential for someone willing to keep working with him.  He could be a working horse, show horse, or trail horse.
