About:
Koda is a flashy, kind soul looking for a new home! He is a great trail horse. He has been taken through the Clinton Anderson Fundamentals training and has great groundwork skills (lunging, backing, sidepass,etc). He is broke for an intermediate to advanced rider, or a beginner under supervision. Walk, trot, canter under saddle. Can also side pass! Koda is not spooky and has an even tempered disposition. He is easy to teach and could be turned into a pleasure horse with a little work. Maybe a little showing is in his future! Koda is a very willing partner with someone who has good horse leadership skills. He is eager to please and can be quite affectionate.
Koda was diagnosed with navicular syndrome in 2018. After 1 shot of Osphos, it has been managed with Equioxx (anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen) and he is otherwise sound. For the last 2 ½ years on the medication, he has been lightly ridden with no lameness issues. His current cost of treatment is $43 a month. He has many good years left on him! His asking price reflects the navicular diagnosis. Willing to throw in a 15" saddle if you are interested. Please contact me with any questions you may have!

Scarlett - Project horse $750
Quarter Horse, 14.3hh, 12 year old, Mare
Cost will increase as training continues.
Current description: Scarlett is a partially trained 12 year old who's is very tactile, loves to be close to people and is gentle, sweet and slow to spook. She is comfortable in a bareback pad and English bitless bridle, but has not yet been ridden. We expect her to be an excellent beginner riding horse once fully trained.
Previous description: Scarlett is an untrained 10 year old from a local rescue organization currently in recovery from her previous home and starting training at HHIA. She wears a halter, leads and ties. She is very emotionally sensitive, defensive, forward and extremely intelligent. She is currently working through understanding that people aren't her predators when they are working with her.
SOLD Jadan $1500
Tri-colored Spotted Saddle Horse 15.3hh, 21 years old, Gelding
Jadan is a been-there-done-that lesson horse, but he's ready to skip the arena and hit the trails for his "retirement" instead. He's seasoned on trails with people of all ages (3 and up). We do walk with him with younger riders, but only for extra safety. He is very smooth and prefers to stay slow, regardless of gait. He prefers walk/trot, but can canter and rack. He is emotionally sensitive, but doesn't scare easily.
Jadan is an easy keeper. He needs a low sugar diet as he is prone to EMS and Laminitis, but is not medicated and has not had trouble since he joined HHIA 3 years ago. He does well on Fescue/Orchard mix, Buckeye Nutrition Safe 'N Easy and MVP's Anti-Carb supplement.
SOLD Junior $550
Quarter Horse, 15.3hh, 17 years old, Gelding
17 year old Quarter Horse. 15.3hh. Companion Horse/minimal riding.
180lb rider/tack combined weight limit. As a "been there, done that" horse, Junior knows English and Western. He works well in the arena or on trails and is comfortable both with direct reining and neck reining. He is currently mostly walk due to arthritis in his right front knee, but improves in his abilities the longer he stays at HHIA where he is receiving rehab for it. He is snuggly and consistently makes students laugh about how much he likes ground poles.
Ideal for beginner riders. Moves easily, but not quickly. Would be the ideal "grandchild's horse" for occasional riding.
Excellent ground manners, very affectionate, and emotionally steady.
Average Keeper: Currently lives on pasture, which allows for movement and is ideal for his arthritis.

SOLD Valerie - Free based on information below
Mostly Untrained Range Horse, 15hh, Age unknown
HHIA Representing for owner.
Valerie can be touched from head to tail. She recently began showing affection towards HHIA's head trainer through touch. She loves a good puzzle and is a fast learner now that she trusts people more. She is desensitizing to equipment, including lunge lines, lead ropes and whips. She does not halter. She will eat enthusiastically out of your hand. She is only available based on the terms in her previous description below:
Previous Description: Val is an untrained, largely unhandled, project horse rescued from a kill auction by her owner. She is free to a home vetted by HHIA and to an owner who agrees to work with her using HHIA training methods only, under guidance of HHIA head trainer. High level Parelli trainers and other Natural Horsemanship Training methods failed, which triggered her current owner to contact HHIA, whose trainer is making progress with Val.
Age unknown until we can touch her. She is branded, but research is needed to know where she came from. 15hh, black and white pinto, guessing Quarter Horse.
Val does not not allow human touch other than at her nose. HHIA's trainer is using body language and voice to train her. Val knows how to walk, trot, stop and back on cue.
