About Pada

Pada was neglected when her donor rescued her along with the help of the sheriff’s department. When Pada arrived at her donor’s she had a foal with her and knew how to lead. She was rehabilitated and then her donor placed her with Bluebonnet for training and eventual adoption.

Pada’s donor had a DNA breed report done on her by Texas A&M. Her results came back as Garrano, Argentinia Criollo, Selle Francais.

Pada will be competing in hand in the Non-Pro In Hand division of the Bluebonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge with non-pro Jennifer Wagner.

Pada's trainer, Jennifer, fell in love with her while preparing for the Challenge and adopted her before the competition!

Evaluation and Training

Pada is a sweet, friendly mare. She gets along with other horses and does well both in a stall and out in pasture. She’s good to catch, lead, and load. She stands tied for grooming and the farrier, and she is good to fly spray. She does not mind having a saddle pad thrown over her back but appears to have not been bridled before. She is learning to longe, and she’s a perfect age to start under saddle.

She has a stunning trot and her foster home feels she might have potential as a low-level dressage or hunter.
