Lady Sheherazade
Lady Sheherazade "Jazz" is an approx 15.2h, 15yo TN Walking Horse mare. She came to GAIT, Inc. with a history that no horse should ever be subjected to. She was seized by animal control and placed in the care of a rescue in PA. However, due to a technicality in the court proceedings, she was returned to the neglectful owner. Just a few months later, she found herself abandoned at a boarding barn and was sold as "beginner safe" for young children by the boarding barn owner to pay back board. That new owner soon found out that she was more horse than her young kids could handle as she kept pulling them back to the barn and they were not strong enough to prevent it. We were contacted by the original rescue that had helped with her during the seizure case and asked if we could help the current owner. After a nice conversation with that owner, we agreed to take Jazz into the rescue as an owner surrender. All of this upheaval and change over the past year has her feeling a bit uncertain and she is currently getting a 30-day refresher at Clarity Riding. She is doing very well and will be available for adoption very soon. Jazz is currently undergoing treatment for Lyme, turns out that was what was likely causing her some issues reflected in her behavior.
