Sammy – A True Gentleman Looking for a Loving Home
Sammy is a 16-year-old bay gelding, standing approximately 15 hands tall, with a heart as big as his comeback story. This sweet boy didn’t have the easiest start—when he was found, he was severely underweight, neglected, and in desperate need of a second chance. He had clearly been forgotten by the world around him, but despite everything he endured, Sammy never lost his gentle spirit.
Thankfully, a kind-hearted person stepped in to rescue him. They gave him the food, care, and love he so badly needed. They helped him regain weight, built up his strength, and showed him that not all humans would let him down. Unfortunately, as much as they loved him, they had too many horses of their own and knew Sammy deserved more attention than they could give. That’s when he came to our facility, where we're helping him find the forever home he's always deserved.
Sammy is truly a joy to be around. He’s calm, respectful, and incredibly safe for riders of all levels—including beginners. He is one-hand broke, meaning he neck reins easily and responds to gentle cues. Whether you're just learning to ride or looking for a reliable trail partner, Sammy is as steady and trustworthy as they come. We’ve been doing light rides with him, and he's shown zero signs of bucking, bolting, or spooking—even in new environments. He's the kind of horse you can saddle up and just enjoy the ride.
He also has excellent ground manners. Sammy stands quietly for grooming, leads politely, and is a total gentleman for the farrier—he picks up all four feet without hesitation. He gets along wonderfully with other horses in the pasture and enjoys being part of the herd. He’s happiest when he’s outside, grazing with his buddies, but always happy to come say hello.
More than anything, Sammy just wants someone to bond with—a person who will take the time to groom him, talk to him, and show him the consistent love and care he was missing for far too long. He doesn’t ask for much—just kindness, consistency, and a soft place to land.
✨ If you're looking for a safe, well-mannered, and sweet-natured gelding who’s already been through the worst and is ready to enjoy the best—Sammy could be your perfect match. He has so much love to give and is ready to start his next chapter with a person or family who will truly cherish him.
