Lakota was adopted into a show home, but had to be returned because he needs pasture turnout daily to make sure he stays comfortable. An old injury from before he came to Serenity flared up and the farm began tests immediately- x rays, ultrasounds, etc- no cost was spared to try to make him comfortable and find the root of his issues. He was adored by the show barn. 

Lakota is now being ridden again and shows no signs of discomfort. 

He is sorta a smarty pants but we think this will change when he gets back to work.  He loves other horses and would make a great friend for another horse.  It may be that Lakota develops some arthritis around hhis old injury, but for now he is sound.

Lakota's Intake Photos

Lakota the day he was rescued (from the pen he was rescued from with Sequoia)

Lakota arrives at Serenity- frightened and sick internally and externally. His tail was dreaded into mats of feces. We let him stay in a stall with Sequoia the first few days to settle him in, he had never been handled.
