Petunia

by Horse Protection | Dec 6, 2023 | Adopt, Awaiting Training, Companion, Equines, Sponsor Needed

My name is Petunia, and I am a nine year old Mustang. I was rescued by the Levy County Sheriff’s along with 15 other horses from a severe case of starvation and neglect. Horse Protection teamed up with the Levy County Sheriffs and came to my aid. I like to hang out with my herd mates (known as the flower girls, Iris, Lily, and Rose). I also like to nap a lot during the day and to munch on green grass. It’s fun! You should try it! Thank you for caring about me and reading my story. Love, Petunia.

My name is Iris, and I am an eleven-year-old Mustang. I was rescued from starvation and neglect along with fifteen other horses in Levy County. The Sheriff’s office in Levy County and Horse Protection teamed up to save our lives. I was feral when I came to Horse Protection, but I have been learning this thing called Parelli Natural Horsemanship which I like. It helps me understand people and helps people understand me.
