RUSTIC
Foaled in 2001 a TB mare.
Rustic's color is so unique and appealing, but don't let your eyes deceive
you. She is a really nice horse and will make a wonderful pet, but at this time
LCR and the veterinarians do not feel she will ever be sound enough for any type
of riding. Rustic has a club foot, flat back, a roman shaped nose and face
making her eyes almost on the sides of her head, and patellar fixation so severe
that she may end up needing surgery just to keep it from looking completely.
She was bred to be a race horse and has some nice breeding, but somewhere
along the lines her breeding did not show through. Rustic has had no training
except to lead and basic manners. he feet get trimmed regularly due to the club
foot needing extra attention, but it is still sometimes a struggle and she will
need patience and additional training in this area.
She will need and experience handler. she is very easy to get along with and
will make a wonderful companion since she is always low man. she would be a
great baby sitter for the young ones since she really likes to play.
There is no fee for her, except maybe a trailering charge.
