Adoption Overview $1,500

Geoffery

Geoffery is a handsome, green gelding with a kind eye, a sharp mind, and a bright future ahead.

Although he has had minimal safe handling experience in the past, Geoffery is now beginning to learn the basics of groundwork and is progressing well. He’s observant and intelligent—taking in his surroundings, thinking things through, and slowly discovering that people can be trusted. While still green, Geoffery’s curiosity, quick learning, and quiet willingness make him an excellent prospect for an experienced handler ready to guide a young horse with potential.
