I have inherited a 24 year old stallion. 29 inches tall and has arthritis in his back legs. He is such a sweety and so well mannered. He was with my 2 year old colt I bought and needed a home so here he is.
I don't have a lot of room for extra horses here. But he does make a great babysitter for babies. The colts are 2 and 3 now so are a little rough for him to be with.
Just wondering what is happening to all those older stallions out there. The ones that were being used as stallions but did not really make the grade and went to sales, pets or whatever.
It is just too difficult to be gelding them at this age. So sad that the end of his life he has to be isolated.
I do make sure he is next to others as he does not eat without a companion in sight.
