Adoption Story
Mello
Foster Agency: Wild Hearts Haven
Year of Birth: 2023
Gender: Gelding
Breed: Tennessee Walker
Markings: Paint
Mello is a foal that came to Wild Hearts Haven as a transfer from Colorado Horse Rescue Network after being seized by law enforcement with multiple other horses.
He came to us unhandled and fearful of people and in need of some groceries and medical care due to being neglected. And yes, he is gaited!
Mello has become quite the friendly little gelding! He is now halter broke, picks up his feet, stands for fly spray and just loves attention from people. He came to us with extremely crooked legs and we have had him on supplements and been doing corrective trimming and they are now straightening out and his hooves are growing much nicer. He is weaned, gelded, and ready for his forever home!
Mello has been adopted by one of our own volunteers!
