Mama loves being handled, groomed and hanging out with people as they love on her. She is better having her mind engaged, is eager and wants to learn.
Unflappable with tarps draped over her, walking through pool noodle gates and scary (small) spider jumps.
Mama will need an calm, experienced rider who is willing to be patient and teach her to relax and learn to be an Off the track thoroughbred.
Clare's description of Janka:
Mama Janka has been with me, at my barn, for about a week.
She is an exceptionally sweet, lovely mare.
She is really nice to hang out with.
Very "Zen" in her relaxed energy.
You off the track Thoroughbred mare enthusiasts will especially appreciate who she is!
Janka is an excellent mover, with 3 very good gaits.
She could definitely be a riding Performance Horse, and could do well in any of the Performance Horse Disciplines:
Dressage, Eventing, Jumpers, Working Equitation, and/or Pleasure or Competitive Trail.
Janka would need to be restarted; by a quiet, patient, experienced handler/rider.
Like most of all off the Track Thoroughbreds, she can "wind up" in her energy level.
However, she has been sensible:
some prancing and fretting, but no explosions, buck, rear, or bolt.
She is very brave and bold around the barn, and not spooky.
Obviously needs to gain weight and muscle.
Has issues with over-bonding to her equine neighbors, this will undoubtably be her new owner's biggest challenge.
She has a healing upper leg wound, which happened at her breeding farm earlier this year.
However, she is totally sound.
No Vices.
Barefoot, with very nice, big, strong feet!
Up to date on everything.
Lots of videos available by request.
Located in Petaluma, Ca.
Adoption Fee: $3,000
