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

Horse: Patenna, a 9-year-old 16.1-hand chestnut Thoroughbred mare in Blooming Prairie, MN.
Organization: Refuge Ranch Ministries in Blooming Prairie, MN.

Patenna is an absolutely stunning mare with the potential to do AMAZING things from pony club to western dressage, she could do it all with the right person! While her history is a bit unclear, we know that her future is incredibly bright! She’s sound, sane and stunning and ready to head into training! She’s a sweet and sensitive Thoroughbred who will do best with a thoughtful, calm handler. She has never done anything naughty and appreciates being allowed to think about the “ask” from her handler so she can fully commit. Has routine groundwork sessions, was taken on a western outing and exposed to cattle this past winter and trailers frequently.
