Looking for a kind older gelding to join your barn? You may find what you're seeking in Kiowa, a ~20 year old, ~14h grade gelding on the hunt for a home as a companion or light riding horse. Kiowa's owner has had him for about 10-15 years. His life prior to that is unknown, but he was already trained under saddle. Since getting him, his owner has primarily used him for the occasional slow ride around the farm. He is now seeking a new home due to his owner having to move and being unable to take him and his buddies (Nikki and Dillon) with them.

When we visited, Kiowa was quiet for catching, leading and grooming. He picked up all four hooves with ease and stood well for fly spray, though he's not a fan. It's been about 4-5 years since Kiowa was last ridden, yet he easily accepted his owner getting on him bareback and walking around on a lead line. He may need a refresher, but we feel he'd easily move back into riding if that's what is desired by his new owner.

Kiowa would do best with an intermediate rider to start, but could possibly be suited for a beginner to advanced beginner rider once back in the swing of things. Due to his age, he may not be suitable for anything more than an easy walk on the trail. We were unable to determine if Kiowa is gaited, but he does have the look and stance of one.

Kiowa could also be a great companion horse for any herd. He is good with both mares and geldings, and has lived with younger horses as well. He is barefoot and lives out 24/7. Kiowa is updated on deworming and farrier. Let us know if you could give this older gentleman a safe place to land and live out his days!
