Pip
Pip is a great name for this 2005, 15.1hh, Tennessee Walking Horse, mare. Maybe ‘Pips’ would be more accurate as she is gray, flea bitten and gorgeous! Pip hadn’t been ridden in 10 years and came to her current owner, as a companion horse, last July. Sadly, the horse that Pip was to companion has since died. Now Pip is alone as her other Fjord friend will be going to a therapeutic riding program. Pip was ridden her first 10 years and recently accepted a saddle from her current owner with an Oh! I remember this. Pip’s owner said her trot is floatie and her canter looks great in the pasture! Pip leads, ties, backs up, trailers, stands for grooming and the farrier like a champ. She coughs occasionally (though I didn’t experience that in the hour I spent with her even as she ate dry hay off the ground). As a precaution, however, her hay is wet down. Pip is friendly, gentle, calm and is handled every day. At Pip’s previous home, she was paired with 2 dominant geldings so when she came in July, she was underweight. Thankfully, she is slowly putting weight back on. Pip’s teeth were floated September 2024, she is fully vaccinated and good to go to a new forever home.
