About Jigsaw
Jigsaw was placed with Bluebonnet after Hurricane Harrvey. Her owners decided they needed to cut back on horses while they rebuilt.
Evaluation and Training
When Jigsaw arrived at Bluebonnet, she had had very little handling. She was very hard to catch and barely halter broke.Fortunately, she was enrolled in the Bluebonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge. She worked with an adult handler for the 2018 Bluebonnet Rescue Horse Training Challenge and learned to lead, navigate trail obstacles in handle, and carry a saddle. She was still, however, very leery of people and new things so she went back into the Training Challenge for Fall 2019. This time, her handler is a young girl and Jigsaw has responded well to her! She's easier to catch, lead, and handle. She's calmer on in hand trail obstacles, and she's even had a rider sit on her back a few times. She loves to jump! Jigsaw is a fast learner. She's not going to be a pony for a beginner or novice, but she could be a really nice pleasure, trail, playday or show pony for a more experienced child with additional training.
