Background & Care:
- Draco is an anxious guy: anxious with both new people and new places. He would do well as a pet/companion who doesn’t have to travel or get used to new people.
- Draco thrives with consistent handling and will benefit from continued training to build his confidence and reach his full potential
- Because of his anxiety, he has bolted when his original foster home tried to ride him. He’s sound, but he will only be adopted as a riding horse to an expert/professional who can work through his under-saddle problems.
- He is ok to handle on the ground by a confident intermediate and could be a nice companion for a lonely horse.

Why He’s Amazing:
Draco is smart, sensitive, and full of personality. He’s a quick learner, loving, and has curious traits that make him a special partner for someone ready to continue his training and enjoy his unique character.
