Meet Violet! This stunning mare is ready for her next chapter and you won’t want to miss out on this one! At 8 years old Violet has been through a lot in her short life, originally coming to a previous owner from an auction. We were never able to trace her history, so much of her backstory remains a mystery but it certainly isn’t a mystery why this girl is staff and volunteer favorite at Nevins! Violet is as sweet and honest as they come and is truly beloved by both her human and horse friends alike.

Since coming to Nevins Violet has had some mild lameness that was pretty tricky to pin point. After a few cycles of specialty shoes on her front feet, she is ready to get back into work! She had previously been lunged in tack before her bout of lameness and is now getting back into that routine. She takes everything in stride and really looks to please. Because she is still green her ideal adopter would have experience bringing along a young horse or will work with a trainer to do so.

She can be a bit nervous about certain things such as blanketing and getting her feet done so patience and understanding is a must to help this good girl blossom into the best horse she can be! She is up to date on all vet and farrier care but adopters should have a good relationship with their vet and farrier to make sure this girl stays on the right track.

Violet is a great companion to her horse friends and hasn’t met one she hasn’t liked! She has been turning out most regularly with another mare but doesn’t mind if you take her away for a little bit – she’s happy to stay with her hay! Violet self-loads and trailers like a dream…do we need to say more??
