Get to Know Espresso



This week’s adoptable horse, Espresso, is a very sweet and mellow off-the-track Thoroughbred. Espresso broke his left front fetlock and had an arthrodesis surgery performed at the beginning of 2022 to stabilize the joint with a plate and screws. As a result of his injury, he is looking for a non-riding therapy program or companion home.

Espresso enjoys being groomed, hanging with his people friends, and being a part of something. Even though he is young, there is an old soul within him that understands how to speak deeply.
