Get to Know Adoptable Horse Draco

Draco is one fancy-moving guy! He has knee action for days.

Draco needs a rider who can be confident in the saddle and tell him things are fine when he starts worrying. He was one of the few Appalachian Trainer Face Off horses who actually did the water obstacle this year because his trainer, Alexis, did such a good job of being his partner.

This pretty guy can be registered through his rescue with the Pinto Horse Association for a $25 fee once he is adopted.

Contact Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue today about ASPCA Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, Draco! Their adoption process makes sure you get the right horse for you; it is a no-fail process for finding the right match. Apply to adopt Draco here.
