About this Horse
Meet Santiago! This handsome guy was surrendered to Longmeadow in January 2021. When he arrived, Santiago was an intact stud that required a separate turn out from all other horses. He has since been castrated and is ready for his forever home. We have found that despite the castration, Santiago still believes he is a smooth talker with the ladies. At this time, we believe Santiago would do best with a home with private turnout, strictly mares, or submissive geldings.We have evaluated Santiago under saddle and are very impressed with this handsome gelding. He stands tied, like a true gentleman, and accepts both the saddle and rider. It appears he has had some training. He is a level-headed horse and does not spook easily. His age-appropriate stiffness can make him less supple when steering. While in work, Santiago is most comfortable in front shoes. He would be fine without shoes if he is being ridden on a lead line or as a pasture pet. We recommend Santiago as a light riding horse where he could enjoy slow strolls around your property at the walk and trot. This restriction is due to his age, conformation and arthritis. Santiago would do best with a solid, intermediate rider. Santiago is not being ridden currently. He is used in handling demonstrations or used for working students to practice their groundwork skills. He is a patient gentleman and has shown time and time again that he is a quiet, reliable gelding.Adoption Fee: $300.00 Height: 14.2hhCarrying Weight: 185lbs (including tack and rider)Meet Santiago from Humane Society of Missouri on Vimeo.
Contribute to SANTIAGO's Stash!
100% of SANTIAGO's balance will be sent to whoever adopts SANTIAGO.
Adopt SANTIAGO and Receive SANTIAGO's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, SANTIAGO's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is SANTIAGO's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the SANTIAGO, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming SANTIAGO's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and SANTIAGO was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, SANTIAGO’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the SANTIAGO’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, SANTIAGO’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
