Moxie is a beautiful sooty chestnut Mountain Horse cross type mare who was collected by KHS as a feral free roaming horse in December 2023. She was pregnant at the time but her foal was born healthy at KHS and has since found placement.
Moxie is a sturdy mare, very attractive in person, and hasn't shown any unsoundness during her time with us. She was a very sensitive, flighty mare when she arrived but she's coming around in handling with patience and time. Moxie would be a rewarding project for someone with training experience or could be adopted to someone who will send her for consistent training to develop her into the nice mare we know she is destined to be. Adopters who aren't experienced trainers or who don't plan to utilize a trainer will not be considered for Moxie at this time for her best interest. Moxie is currently in training in Wilmore, KY with Metcalfe Equine LLC. She has been doing extensive groundwork and learning a lot of the basics for the first time, like having her hooves picked out and trimmed, being caught and led daily, roundpen work, etc. She is most likely of Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse, Rocky Mountain Horse, and Saddlebred genetics and may be gaited under saddle when the time comes. If you are interested in Moxie please reach out with any questions and check back for updates as she continues to learn the ways of life in domestication. |
