About this Horse
Fiyero came to Longmeadow at the end of 2024 as part of a warrant case with other horses, all suffering from different types of neglect. It took some time for him to settle into his new life here at Longmeadow. The transition was difficult for most of the horses in his group. Once we obtained legal custody of this gelding, and as soon as he received the necessary vet care he desperately needed, Fiyero was ready to leave our quarantine barns and be evaluated by our trainers. Fiyero will require a confident adopter, as he tends to misbehave and try his handlers at times. However, with firm but gentle corrections, Fiyero quickly remembers his manners. At times, he can be a bit unfocused. Our trainers and staff members are working on improving Fiyeroâs stall manners as well. Fiyero pins his ears and swishes his tail when our staff members approach him outside of his stall. As soon as the staff member enters his stall, however, this behavior disappears. We believe it is a behavior that began at his previous home, but with kindness, training, and maybe a treat (or two), we think his unfavorable stall habits can be fixed. Fiyero was evaluated by our training team and then examined by a veterinarian. The team has decided that he will not be a riding horse but will make a great companion to other equines. Fiyero has poor conformation which has contributed to his discomfort when ridden. We think it would be unfair to expect him to carry a person of any size. Fiyero does well in a herd with mares and geldings. He tends to be middle ranking and doesn't stir up trouble. He could go to a home with a person who wants to do groundwork training on the flat with him.Despite his antics, Fiyero is a handsome gelding who deserves a home where he can learn how it feels to be spoiled and loved. He has an endearing underbite and enjoys spending time out in the paddock with his equine buddies. He stands well for our farrier and has cute little quirks that make him stand out among the other horses. He will need to go to a home with an advanced handler to ensure he lives up to his best potential. Adoption Fee: $300Height: 14.2hh

Adopt FIYERO and Receive FIYERO'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, FIYERO's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is FIYERO's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the FIYERO, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming FIYERO'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 FIYERO was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, FIYERO’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the FIYERO’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, FIYERO’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!
