Lucas is a stylishly spotted gaited gelding in his upper 20s. He came to KHS underweight and very lame, but thankfully with time and care he's doing much better. Lucas lived almost his entire life as a stallion and was kept alone, usually stalled. He was castrated at KHS and introduced to a few other geldings and will be looking for a home where he can live with only geldings. Lucas is broke to ride and is currently rideable with front shoes but our farrier believes with time and patience his hooves may get to a point where he can be barefoot again, in the meantime he really needed the support provided by his shoes. This handsome guy has probably been ridden miles and miles in his lifetime but would appreciate some consideration for a bit of arthritis at his age, meaning he rides well but doesn't likely need to travel to the ends of the earth these days. Lucas can be a tad grouchy but otherwise has a surprisingly vibrant spirit and zest for life at his age. Because of his years as a stallion he would not be suitable for unsupervised youth riders. He is pretty predictable and steady under saddle but would definitely still try to woo the ladies if given a chance. If you have a soft spot (and a safe home) for a debonair flashy gentleman of a certain age, please inquire about adopting Lucas.
