Smarty Pants was welcomed home in March of 2023. Before his life with his current owner, he was most likely worked in a show program with a busy lifestyle but he discovered tranquility at his current, quiet home with another gelding. His owner was starstruck by his charming nature, steady mind on the trails, and pocket-size before he started expressing signs of COPD and metabolic issues recently.
Smarty Pants now receives low cost ($25/month) treatment for his COPD and has shown significant improvement on a low starch/low sugar diet. His owner would love to keep him now that he is retired from riding, but is strained financially. She is enthusiastic about his recent improvements with dietary changes and will continue to help him feel his best while he waits for a home that will maintain his low sugar needs, COPD management, and appreciate him as the white knight that he is.
He is truly the perfect unicorn for your farm... not only because of his sparkling white coat and delightful personality (or even the fact that he could totally rock a horn and glittery sparkles) but also because of how good he is in hand for almost any noble challenge.
If you are interested in rehoming Smarty Pants and giving him a safe forever home, please use the "Apply to Adopt" button above to fill out an Interest Form and we will connect you with his owner. Thank you!
Courtesy Listing - This equine is currently being cared for by his owner in Harrisonburg, VA but needs to be rehomed due to both financial issues.
