Cinnamon is all sweet and no spice. This little girl had the odds stacked against her, and while she is still battling to gain weight and will need continued refeeding care, her vet has cleared her for take-off to a new home. Cinnamon’s ground manners are perfection, and she will do exactly as you ask. We don’t anticipate her being a riding horse anymore, and after her difficult past, a retirement home seems just right. She is so low-key, she would do best in a home with other very calm equines who knows she will move at her own slow rhythm. This little girl stands about 13 hands. Cinnamon stands great for the vet and is up to date on all vaccinations, Coggins, dental care, farriery, and is microchipped. Adoption fee subject to change as her skills improve. Please fill out an interest in adoption form on the Humane Society of North Texas website to learn more and schedule an appointment.
