Meet Huxley, renamed after Aldous Huxley, a famous author who was almost completely blind and was a great author of many including Brave New World.

Huxley was a share from a craiglist listing in OH this morning. He was a 6yr old Morgan gelding, blind, rode, FREE to rehome. The thought of a blind anything ending up in the hands of a broker or worse was troublesome to many. A quick phone call, a hauler in the area and a willing receiver and Huxley was safe.

Huxley was soon recognized by someone at the farm who recieved him and with a quick phone call it was clarified that he was picked up from an area farm and sold to the woman who had him. He had been blind from birth. He is actually only 3 yrs old, locally bred and no papers. The family had indeed been driving him and he was also broke to ride. Some how deemed no longer useable, a local dealer's wife worked with him to rehome him to what she had thought was a safe home. The current owner was giving him away to make room for goats her husband purchased. Huxley was the choice.

The trust this little Morgan had for his people to be able to drive him down the road is incomprehensible. How lost he must have felt to be shuffled off to the hands of strangers. The thought of the possibility he could have landed on a much different ride is hard to imagine.

Upon landing with his caregiver Lori Sargeant in OH it was realized Huxley was not a gelding but a stallion. On 4/20/2017 he was gelded and is doing great! He really didn't know he was a stallion.

Huxley is a very trusting soul and looking for a willing partner. He may be very suitable for a therapy program. He is looking for a special home! He is 3yrs old, stands about 14.2h and as you can see in his riding video, very kind, non-spooky and very trusting of his handler. He can see without eyes.
