My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Name: Dory


Animal ID: 554129


Gender: Female


Age: 12 years old


Breed: Pony


Height: 12.3hh


Adoption Fee: $500


Location: Hempstead


Adopter experience needed: Intermediate


Training level: Halter broke


Current assessment and personality: Dory has a quirky personality but is very personable! She is usually the first one to meet you at the gate for attention, and is an "in your pocket" pony. She is not broke to ride and we feel she would be best suited as a companion. She has progressed significantly with consistent handling.


Potential: Companion


Health/lameness: Due to her conformation, we believe she would be best suited as a companion only.


Loads and Trailers: Yes


Leads: Yes


Catch in pasture: Yes


Stands for farrier: Yes, but still in training.


Ties: Yes, but still in training.


Bathes: In training.
