About Dulce

Dulce was seized by law enforcement and awarded to BEHS. Dulce quickly recovered from her negligent past and turned out to be a sweet, gentle horse. She has been adopted and returned twice – neither time was her fault.

Evaluation and Training

Dulce means "sweet" in Spanish, and this trusting mare lives up to her name . She is an all-around nice horse - easy to catch, lead, tie, de-worm, and trailer. She also stands nicely for the farrier.

Dulce’s first adopter started her under saddle but then returned her when she was still green. She was not ridden much in her next home, and began bucking when she was returned. Her current foster home is working with her on the ground to rebuild her trust in people as well as her fitness and may restart her under saddle.
