I was on an adoption web site, Habitat For Horses, and saw this gelding in their section of newly arrived horses. Yankee Blue is a 1997, gray, 17.1 hand gelding. They just received him in May. Right now he is located in Green Cove Spring, FL. They haven't decided what his adoption fee would be. I sent them an e-mail asking if they had any other info on him. Does anyone know this horse or know of him?

I just received an update on Yankee Blue:
....this poor guy could not even walk straight....his one shoulder was 2 inches lower than the other...the farrier has placed a shoe on the low one and evened him out...he was very out of wack so to speak. We are working him slowly, trying to get him straightened out so I think he will be in rehab awhile longer.....
i wish I had a farm. I know this guy has picked the wrong economic time to need a home. I e-mailed the ATA office to see if they have anything on him, but haven't heard anything yet.

Wendi, I sent an e-mail to:
Karen Strieder Habitat for Horses adoptions@habitatforhorses.org 1-866-434-5737
Hopefully she will tell me exactly where Yankee Blue is. If the phone number is a local call for you, you can call.
Thanks for taking an interest.

I received an e-mail today, and Yankee Blue's foster home has fallen in love with him and decided to keep him. So this story has a happy ending. Thank you Wendi for your interest.
