Welcome to Horse Illustrated’s weekly installment of the My Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, offered in partnership with The Right Horse. Blue Jay is this week’s adoptable horse. Check back weekly for a new featured horse so you can find your #righthorse.

Horse: Blue Jay, a bay 6-year-old American Quarter Horse gelding in Stanley, N.M.
Organization: New Mexico Horse Rescue

Blue Jay is a gentle, registered American Quarter Horse gelding who was started as a ranch horse. Unfortunately, he was later found to have a congenital defect—a hole in his cannon bone—so his owner surrendered him to New Mexico Horse Rescue so he can enjoy a more relaxed life with a new owner. The defect does not cause pain, and he does not need medication. To keep Blue Jay pain-free, he should be considered as a non-riding companion for another horse, because his condition could worsen or become painful if ridden. Because of his calm demeanor, he would make the perfect pasture pal for another horse or herd. Could he be your #righthorse?
