Description
**Please review adoption costs and policies on our home page before inquiring about a horse. Thanks!** Hi, I'm Wally, the Belgian Waffle! This is the new name I got when I was saved from my worst nightmare ever - the auction block. I was one of over 20 horses shoved into a small holding pen at Sugarcreek Auction, only known by the number pasted to my hind quarters. But then the wonderful people of the Circle P Sanctuary saved me. I arrived here on Friday May 9th, 2008. I have relaxed since then, but it was difficult to get over Auction Anxiety. That was the scariest place in the world and I never want to go back. Because of this, I will need a loving patient person who can work with me and understand my fears. I am completely up to date with all of my medical care (including dental), and recently experienced the relief of a chiropractic adjustment (that was awesome). I think I am in my early 20's, in good health, and they say I have nice conformation. Will you be my sweet syrup and pour your love all over me-I am as great as a Belgian Waffle!!! **Update 2/23/09**Wally has been used predominantly for driving. We have ridden Wally bareback, but have not put a saddle on him. We do not know what his response would be to having the equipment on. That being said, we cannot recommend Wally be used for horseback riding. Wally continues to be able to do light driving, and be a special friend to another horse.** **Update 5/21/09** Wally continues his training in driving and is doing well. He evens displays teaming behavior with our other draft Captain as in the picture-the two stand and walk together in unison through the field at times. It is pretty cute. Wally is a gentle fellow with a big heart. and seems to be fascinated with children. We are removing Wally as a special needs horse because no longer needs sedation for farrier visits. Also his age does not seem to effect his ability to work and Wally is by no menas ready to be considered an Old Man. Please check back after the holiday weekend for more pics.
