Leo

Leo is a gray grade quarter horse gelding who came in during a November 2019 Chisago County humane case. He was foaled in approximately 1996 and stands 14.3hh. He is currently in a foster home and has put on some much needed weight. Leo was also diagnosed with Cushing’s disease and it is being controlled very well with medication. Leo did have laminitic episodes in the past and radiographs do show signs of rotation. He requires front shoes because of this. He is very well broke to ride and is currently being used as a lead line horse in the lesson program at his foster home. With his shoes Leo is comfortable, but he should only have smaller riders and do light riding on soft surfaces.
