Adoptable Horse: Cooper, a 10-year-old 15.0hh Appaloosa gelding Organization: Lollypop Farm, Fairport, N.Y.
Meet Cooper! This handsome boy has stunning looks and a great personality to boot. Cooper is looking for a companion home due to a past stifle injury which has left him unrideable.
But Cooper has so many other things going for him! He is very sweet, has good ground manners, gets along with other horses well, and is fairly low-maintenance. Cooper was gelded a bit later in life, and tends to get a little too interested in mares, so a home where he’s turned out with geldings is preferable. Cooper will need the arthritis in his stifle monitored over his life, but all the amazing qualities he will bring to your family will make it more than worth it!
Cooper is suitable as a companion horse only, and is adoptable for a fee of $300 or eligible for C.A.R.E Program.
