Adopt Amber Jazz
Female · Senior · 27 years
Jazz is a 15.2hh Arab X Welsh Section D, born in 1999. She suffers from a respiratory condition called COPD, or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, which is similar to human Asthma. Jazz came to Shy Lowen in August 2008, after she had been bought by novices looking for a family horse. Jazz was the first horse they saw and they bought her immediately as they were taken with her striking looks, despite her being a young, flighty horse who was totally unsuitable for their needs. Jazz developed behavioural problems as a result of her being mishandled and became a danger to the family, especially as she bucked when ridden. Because of this and her COPD, they were unable to sell her on and instead signed her into the sanctuary. Jazz settled quickly at Shy Lowen and responded well to her retraining. Her COPD is triggered by dust from bedding and hay, so she benefits from living outdoors and now rarely suffers any symptoms. Jazz is a lovely horse, but also a typical chestnut mare, and her Arab breeding only makes her even more spirited and temperamental! She is good to handle on the ground, but needs an experienced rider as she can be spooky, is easily bored, and thinks nothing of throwing tantrums with the odd buck or rear to get her own way! She loves to jump and is best suited to a confident rider who has the skills to continue her schooling and enjoys a challenge.
