Get to Know Gunnison

Gunnison is a sweet, older gelding available for adoption as a companion horse! He is a happy guy who has really thrived living out in the pasture. He happily trots in for dinner, and spends most of his time out exploring the pasture. He’s a handsome fellow who would love nothing more than to be a family’s forever friend!
