Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Kandy is a registered Appendix mare, 21 years old, who stands at 14.1 hands. Kandy is in Seneca, SC. She is an excellent beginner horse but fun for a more advanced rider as well. She is extremely calm and laid back and she is perfect on trails. She crosses water, goes up and down hills, rides by traffic, and rides well in an arena as well. She has been taken over small jumps, though she hasn't had the jumping experience yet to be sold as ready for competition. She would be great for a lesson program also. Kandy rides Western, English or bareback. Go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3s2S3mq5R8Q to see her YouTube video showing her under saddle as well as more photos there. Her registered name is Panamas Piza Kandy.
Our horses have received their basic vaccinations (Rabies vaccine, EWT combo vaccine) at the time of adoption. They have been dewormed and have a negative Coggins test as well. All horses have received a hoof assessment and trimming. Horses are also microchipped.
We do our best to determine what amount of training they have had and to represent them as accurately as possible. However, we usually do not know the history of our horses, so we determine training by how the horses act after we get them. Please call ahead or email to set up a time to meet our horses if you are interested in adopting. They are at foster homes so we may need up to a couple days notice in order to schedule a time for you to see them.
We desire for our horses to find a good home where the horse will be a good fit with the person adoption him/her. With that goal in mind, we do our best to accurately represent everything, good and bad, with our horses. Since they have received a full vet exam, many times there are health problems recorded here. The vast majority of horses have at least some health issue, though most sellers are unaware if the horse has not recently received a full examination. Therefore keep this in mind if we report a horse has some soreness or lameness issues - our horses are likely not less sound than other horses on this site - we simply examine them and report all concerns.
As part of helping new owners find a horse that is a good fit, we offer several valuable services included as part of the adoption fee on our horses. We offer a 1-2 hour training session with Alexandria Dodgen who trains using natural horsemanship techniques. She will help you learn to handle your new horse in a way that gets your horses listening to and respecting you. Our goal is to help you and your new horse have the best start possible and to help you find a horse that will be a great long term fit for you and your family. Offers for training are dependent on you bringing the horse to the trainer's facility (or potentially paying an additional house call fee at your expense). In addition to the training session, CARE also provides one week free boarding until you can pick up your new horse. Adoption fees are negotiable to the right home.
