"Rio" arrived with very little handling history. He is a gray and white spotted Tennessee Walking Horse type gelding (no registration info) standing approximately 15.3hh tall. He was presumed unhandled but we found that once in experienced hands he seems to lead and be comfortable with touch over most of his body, but is still shy to approach. He is available an experienced trainer or to an adopter with reasonable expectations willing to work as long as it takes with a trainer to get him on his way to being a good citizen. He seems to be very naturally gaited, looks to be very sound, and would make a fantastic project horse for someone looking to bring along and develop a horse from the ground up.
