Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Barn Name: Cricket
Breed: Thoroughbred (UnRegistered - No Papers)
Date of Birth: 1989
Sire: Lover's Cross (TB) CSHA Approved (Silver Premium) by Explodent by Neartic, Out of Girl in Love, by Lucky Debonair
Dam: Fun Tomorrow (TB) by Briartic, Out of Winsrullah, by Bronzerullah
Height: 15.3hh
Age: 20 yrs old
Gender: Mare
Colour: Bay
Health: Excellent
Lameness: Old Injury (nerve damage across the coronary band LF; occurred before she was two years old) - does not stop her from walking trotting and cantering around the paddocks with her friends as she is pasture sound
Vices: None
Personality: Friendly. Easy to Catch, Lead, Groom, etc. Good with other horses & ponies. Loves to be scratched under the jowels. Can be naughty for the farrier. Not too fond of loading, so she needs an open inviting box stall for trailering.
History/Training: Due to her injury she was never broke to ride. She produced three foals for her previous owner and was a very good mother. Her last foal was four years ago when she was bred to an event stallion called "Newton". The other foals were by "Uniekus" (retired) and "Money Talks". She lost a foal once when in foal to "Jiggy", now known as "Harry Potter". There was no pathology on the foal. She is a very nice looking mare and moves fairly well, despite the injury. She looks the spit and image of her sire and she more than likely would carry another foal or two. The foal she produced from the "Money Talks" breeding was the most impressive of the three. He is a Warmblood, Westphalien Oldenburg approved. Her foal from the "Newton" breeding is very slight and "thoroughbredy". They all had her disposition.
Future/Suitability: Companion, Pet
Adoption Fee/Purchase Price: Instead of posting an adoption fee for Cricket we are willing to consider an offer, donation or a trade for ??? - Cricket is wonderful and deserves a loving permanent knowledgable home so we are hoping this will help her find one as we do understand that extra cash is hard to come by these days!!
WE CAN'T HELP MORE HORSES UNTIL WE FIND HOMES FOR THE ONES THAT ARE HERE - SO IF YOU HAVE AN EMPTY STALL OR SHELTER SPACE, EXTRA FEED AND LOTS OF LOVE PLEASE CONSIDER ADOPTING CRICKET!
Current Status: Located at HCW in Cameron, ON - Available for Adoption/Sale or Fostering/Free Lease (Until Adopted). If you have any questions about Cricket and/or would like to make arrangements to see her, please email Claire at: HCWEquineRescue@sympatico.ca
SPONSORS NEEDED!!!: If you would like to help Cricket, but are not able to Adopt or Foster her at this time perhaps you would be interested in Sponsoring her by helping to cover the costs of (or a portion of) her daily care - such as her Hay, Purina Senior Pellets, Finishing Touch Supplement, Vet, Blacksmith, De-Worming, Over the Fence Feeder, Blue Salt Block, Treats, Halter, Spring Turnout Sheet, Fly Mask, Brushes, Lead Rope, etc. If you would like to help in any way, please email Claire at HCW for details. HCWEquineRescue@sympatico.ca Thanks!!
