Bio: Violet is a coming 20 year old (April 29) Haflinger mare who stands about 14 hands tall. I got her 3 years ago but soon after she started to be on and off lame and we tried a lot of things to remedy the issue (x rays, shoes, etc) but after a great trail ride she injured her tendon and even with stall rest she's not sound, even though an ultrasound revealed that her tendon has healed. So i am not chasing the issue any longer and retire my horse from riding. Due to her having Cushing's disease (what actually affects tendons and ligaments) she probably won't be sound enough to ride. She does not show lameness at a walk and could tote a small kid around but I am trying to find her a companion home only. I have now a new horse I can ride but don't have enough money to board both of them and the current boarding situation (hilly) is not favorable for Violet. She's a sweet horse, bottom of totem pole, stands for vet and farrier (barefoot), up to date on all shots and teeth floating. I am very attached to her so i don't want to surrender her necessarily, I just don't have the space or money to keep her. I would still pay for her daily Cushing's pill (Prascend) and need to be able to visit every once in a while. Violet will most likely move to Nunn (Fort Collins area) mid April to a pasture only boarding facility but she most probably won't be loved on each day and that's what i want for her as well, horses and people! I have hundreds of pictures of her and you can ask me anything about her! Located in Parker, CO
