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



Horse:  Blossom, an 8-year-old 15.1-hand dun American Paint Horse mare in Longmont, Colo.
Adoption Organization: Colorado Horse Rescue
Blossom is a beautiful young American Paint mare with a world of potential ahead of her. This young lady came to Colorado Horse Rescue through their owner re-homing program and was a well-loved member of the family. With a wonderful outlook on life and a kind, loving upbringing, the only thing left to do is put this incredible mare under saddle. Stay tuned as this beautiful girl progresses through her education. Notes: Trainer required. Blossom has needed padded front shoes to remain sound in training (diagnosed with heel pain).
