Gabe is now 28 years old. He came in to the Rescue because his owner can no longer physically or financially care for him. Gabe will stay in Sanctuary.
He is sound and has no vices. He has such a broad back that he is fun to ride bareback and has become a favorite of the volunteers. We think he is a Paint/Draft cross because of his build and his kind temperment.
August 2006-Gabe is still with us and is the favorite with the volunteers. Whenever a group of Girl Scouts or 4-H kids come out Gabe is the one we use for demonstrations. He stands absolutely still no matter how many kids are around him. If we had the funds, we would clone him. He is the perfect horse.
