Little Man

Our latest resident was surrendered to us at the beginning of September, 2024. He is a red roan gelding, born in 2026 and is a registered quarter horse. He was raised by the person who surrendered him and is a very well-mannered and loving boy.

Little Man sustained an injury to his right rear hoof due to an accident in which it is believed he got caught in some barbed wire. Having had his vet check out the tendon, which was torn in the accident, the horse was given no chance of a full recovery, and it was deemed the best decision to have him put down.

The owner came to us to meet with Kent to see if he thought the horse could be rehabilitated. Kent felt it was too soon to make such a dire decision about Little Man’s fate.

So, once again we have a young, beautiful, otherwise healthy horse here who is being rehabbed with a hoof injury. Kent is a magician when it comes to healing injuries that otherwise seem to have doomed horses, and we are sure we will have another good outcome.

Welcome to Blue Horse, Little Man. We love your kind, gentle spirit.
