Seven months ago, Sterling’s story was very different. He arrived as a severe rehab project—emaciated and in need of someone to believe in him. After months of proper nutrition, care, and consistent handling, he has blossomed into a stunning, thick-built gelding with that classic "Quarter Horse booty" and a heart of gold. He is officially healthy, thriving, and ready to find the forever family he truly deserves.
Sterling is the ultimate "blank slate" with the best possible foundation. Because of his history, he has been handled extensively and is exceptionally trustful and easy to manage.
The Details:
• Maintenance: 100% UTD on vaccines, Coggins, and recent dental.
• Farrier & Handling: Lifts all four feet easily and is a perfect gentleman for the farrier.
• Barn Manners: Stands like a pro in cross-ties for grooming and pampering.
• Turnout: Currently in a mixed herd; he is respectful of others and easy to catch in the field.
• Training: Unstarted under saddle, but possesses a willing, level-headed temperament that will make his future training a breeze.
At 14.3hh, he is the perfect size for a variety of riders and has the athletic build to go in any direction—ranch work, trails, or a local show career.
Sterling isn't just a horse; he’s a testament to resilience. He is looking for a home where he will be a cherished partner and continue his journey with a family of his own.
