Stetson's Story
Stetson is a handsome draft cross gelding in his mid-to-late teens, standing a solid 16 hands. With "been there, done that" experience, Stetson has done it all-from trail riding in Yellowstone to schooling cross-country courses here in Pennsylvania.<br/><br/>Since arriving at Last Chance Ranch, Stetson has participated in our lesson program, worked with campers during summer programs, and even traveled off-site to shows at the Bucks County Horse Park-where he truly enjoyed the cross-country course! He's trained in both English and Western, neck reins easily, and has proven himself as a versatile, well-rounded mount that would excel in any direction. He would do best with an intermediate or above rider, he is a solid walk/trot horse who is still green at the canter and jumping.<br/><br/>Stetson is now ready to find a home where he can enjoy one-on-one attention. While he's been a lesson horse, he thrives best in a private setting with a rider who can give him the connection and consistency he deserves. He is sensitive to changes in his herd and prefers to settle in as a middle-ranking horse. Being pushed into a dominant or submissive role tends to make him anxious and affects his rest and demeanor.<br/><br/>In 2024, Stetson had squamous cell carcinoma removed from his left eye. To protect the area and prevent recurrence, he requires a fly mask to be worn 24/7. Additionally, he occasionally comes up mildly unsound on his left front, though no definitive cause has been determined. He's still very capable of light to moderate work and would make a fantastic partner for someone looking for a kind, experienced, and steady gelding to enjoy at home or on low-key adventures.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting one of our equines, please complete the equine placement on our website, www.lastchanceranch.org.
