Welcome to Horse Illustrated’s weekly installment of the My Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, offered in partnership with The Right Horse. Fantasy is this week’s adoptable horse. Check back weekly for a new featured horse so you can find your #righthorse.
Horse: Fantasy, a gray 14.3-hand 31-year-old American Quarter Horse mare in Fort Worth, Texas Organization: Humane Society of North Texas
Meet the Fantasy of your wildest dreams. This sweet old girl is as steady as it gets. She has excellent ground manners and would be safe for any people, pets, or kids to learn to be around horses. At 31, she is no longer able to be ridden, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a lot of life and love to give still. She loves to bury her head into your chest for a snuggle session any time, anywhere. Another great perk of this distinguished gal, since she has very few teeth left, she is done with teeth floats for life! How awesome is that?! It is a good thing she loves mash and soup, too. Fantasy stands at about 15 hands and is up to date on vaccinations, Coggins, farrier and dental care, deworming, and is microchipped. If you have a place to let this girl retire and live out her golden years, please fill out the Interest in Adoption Form on the Humane Society of North Texas website to learn more or schedule an appointment to meet her. Could she be your #righthorse?
