About Irish & Clover
Irish was placed with someone under the assumption that her best interests would be protected while her original owner transitioned back home. The agreement was that Irish would serve as a broodmare temporarily, and the first foal would go to the original owner, along with Irish’s eventual return. However, without consent, Irish was moved from Colorado to Texas, cutting all ties with her previous owner. We not only rescued Irish, but we also gained contact with the original owner, and have a great line of communication with her.
Today, both Irish and Clover are thriving. Irish is enjoying a well-deserved “mom break” while Clover begins to learn about human interaction, boundaries, and the foundational steps of being handled. Under the guidance of our trainer, they are making remarkable progress.
Temperament & Training
Irish & Clover will begin formal evaluation and groundwork once their quarantine period is complete. Their early interactions show a curious nature, strong awareness, and willingness to connect with handlers. Updates on their progress, temperament rating, and rider suitability will be added as they move through the program.
