Welcome to Horse Illustrated’s weekly installment of the My Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, offered in partnership with The Right Horse. Monkey is this week’s adoptable horse. Check back weekly for a new featured horse so you can find your #righthorse.



Horse: Monkey, 25-year-old 16-hand dun American Quarter Horse gelding in Lexington, Ky.
Organization: Kentucky Equine Adoption Center



Monkey is a sweet older gentleman who came to the Kentucky Equine Adoption Center a few months ago a bit underweight but has since filled out nicely. He has a sweet personality and is kid-friendly and safe to use as a lead-line horse. He would be a great addition to any family! Is he your #righthorse?
