Lightning Fire

2017 15.2 HH Dark Bay Thoroughbred Mare<br/><br/>“Lightning” is a sweet and gentle mare who has already endured more than her fair share in her young life. She came to us from a neglect case in July 2025 and was immediately placed on a carefully managed refeeding program, which is still ongoing. Despite her rough start, Lightning Fire has made wonderful progress and continues to show steady improvement.<br/><br/>What we’ve come to know is a truly lovely horse. She enjoys human company, happily soaks up grooming time, and loves nothing more than relaxing in the sun for an afternoon nap. While she has not yet begun formal groundwork—allowing her to conserve calories during her recovery—she has proven to be well-mannered and kind. Lightning stands quietly for the farrier, ties calmly for grooming, and leads very nicely.<br/><br/>During her lameness evaluation, Lightning flexed positively in her right hock and right hind fetlock. However, her X-rays were not concerning, and her care team expects improvement as she continues to gain weight and build muscle. Once her weight is fully restored, she will begin a gradual rehabilitation program, with her return to work closely monitored to ensure her comfort and long-term soundness.<br/><br/>Lightning Fire is a special mare with a soft soul, and with the right support, she has a bright future ahead. She’ll be available for adoption once she’s reached a healthy weight.<br/><br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $900
