Mr. Malone came to Longmeadow in the early spring of 2021. He was severely underweight and lacked confidence and trust. Through his time at Longmeadow, Malone has gained weight and blossomed into a much more confident gentleman. He has become one of the first to greet you in the pasture and accept all the cookies and cuddles you could possibly give him! And a fun fact: Malone was genetically tested and we found that his breed is a combination of Selle Francais, Missouri Fox Trotter, and Mountain Pleasure Horse! How neat!

Malone was started lightly under saddle at the ranch but had major setbacks that caused him to throw his rider. Our trainer and her team worked with him for a few months afterwards to try and help him move on and recover, but it became evident that he needed time for his mind to reset before they could get positive results.

Malone has a sweet temperament and is very personable – so personable, in fact, that he occasionally needs to be reminded of boundaries! He loves attention and will do anything to get some, whether that’s putting his head on your shoulder or playing with your jacket. He is intelligent and learns quickly. He ground drives like a pro and ponies well next to other horses. Malone will need a professional trainer’s help overcoming his setbacks before being adopted by an advanced rider.
