Dam: Scoot's Flit, by Scoot Baron
Height: 15.1hh
Age: 22 y/o
Gender: Mare
Colour: Bay
Health: Underweight, appears healthy otherwise
Lameness: Sound
Vices: None
Personality: Friendly. Easy to catch, lead, groom, trim, tie, trailer, etc. Currently turned out with a group of mares (horses, ponies, donkeys). Loves attention. Likes brown bread & mints. Likes to be inside when it is hot, humid or buggy!
History/Training: She is sound and would ride all day English or western in a ring with any age rider (no shoes) BUT would have too much energy for a beginner on a trail ride. She loves attention and has been a great mom in the past. Her last foal was born five years ago. I would not recommend her for breeding unless the individual would be prepared for a mare that pre-lactates. She is excellent for the farrier; I deworm her in her feed with brown sugar; she is not fond of injections, trailers like a pro and loves her stall; has no trouble eating but gets sensitive over bugs. She was a winning mare in the ring in her younger years. She is a lovely 15.1 bay with a white star. I have her daughter and grandson. Beginners should not try o trail ride her. She has not been trail ridden in years. I was the only one to trail ride her while we lived in NJ and she was a strong ride. She is very good in the ring. Since we bought our farm eight years ago, her primary job was being a great mom and had three lovely foals for us. She is easy to saddle bridle, lunge and is very soft in hand and in the bridle. She loves attention but still has a lot of life left in her older years. Given up to HCW because of husband's poor health
Future/Suitability: Backyard/Pleasure Riding, English or Western, Possibly Light Showing, She could also do trails if ridden by an experienced rider

Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue - Heaven Can Wait Equine Rescue is located in Cameron, Ontario, Canada - approx 1.5 hours NE of Toronto, just 10 minutes North of Lindsay. This Equine Rescue was started by Claire Malcolm in 1997 to help save horses and ponies from slaughter, and take in any unwanted horse or pony and find them a new, loving home. Not all Horses at HCW are old and lame, or come from abusive/neglective situations, some come from private individuals who want to find a good home for their horse, but don't have the time or knowledge to sell it privately, but don't want to send it to an auction, so they send them here to HCW to find a good home. As you know horses that end up at auctions do have a chance to get bid on by a caring family home, but they also risk the chance of being bid on by a bad home or worse, the meat man.
HCW has found loving new homes for over 700+ equines in the past 12 years (& has even helped find new homes for a few donkeys, pigs, goats, cats & dogs along the way!).
