Story: Romeo and two of his buddies, Roman and Rinaldo, arrived from a Nevada feedlot on September 30, 2009. After a tough roundup by their rancher, Romeo and his buddies were orphaned at the feedlot when they were stripped from their moms who were shipped to slaughter. Romeo is from a Doc Bar sire and Thoroughbred dam.
 
Trainer Notes:  Gentled to halter and touch, Romeo is beautiful and easy to catch and willingly follows his handler.  He is learning to give all four feet and the basic groundwork exercises including backing, yielding the forequarter & hindquarter, head down cue, circle game, etc.  He is a positive cuddly colt that is ready for his permanent home!

Health: Romeo had a nasty wound on his front leg above his knee when he arrived. The area was quite swollen and has reduced significantly after treatment; however, there is some visible scarring, but he has never shown any signs of lameness, pain, irritation, or infection. It does not (and has not) appear to affect Romeo’s mobility or stability in any way.

Issues: None.

Adoption Fee: $450. Vet checked and current on vaccines, worming, dental and hoof care.


Sex: Mare
