About Tinkerbell

Tinkerbell was placed with BEHS by animal control. Tinkerbell competed in and placed 4th in the in hand division of the 2015 Bluebonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge. She was adopted at the 2015 Bluebonnet Horse Expo by someone who saw her competing in the Challenge.

Evaluation and Training

This flashy pony is very easy to catch and halter. Tinkerbell is confident and can be touched all over. She leads and loads in a stock trailer. Tinkerbell’s good disposition complements her striking color pattern, babydoll face, and big, expressive eyes. She is sweet and personable, showing no fear of humans. This filly should be a joy to train, either to pull a cart or under saddle for a child. She's spent June-October 2015 with a foster home preparing for the Bluebonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge. She's refined her leading skills, learned to longe, and learned to navigate trail obstacles in hand. She's ready for an adopter to start under saddle or with a cart in the next year (due to the starvation she suffered before coming to BEHS, her adopter will need to wait until she's three to start her under saddle).Tinkerbell will be competing in hand in the Foster Horse in Hand division of the Bluebonnet Horse Expo on October 17, 2015 and will be available for adoption then.
