About this Horse
Meet Stu! Stu came to Longmeadow as a stud last winter. He was underweight and did not have much experience being handled. After lots of groundwork training and a routine castration, along with all other medical care, this stud-turned-gelding is now ready for adoption!It took a long time for Stu to be safely led to and from his turnout. In the beginning, he had the habit of rearing when feeling any type of pressure from the halter. We can't blame him - he wasn't introduced to a halter until he was ten years old! But for a stud with no previous training, we think he picked up on everything pretty quickly. When he learned that a halter wasn't too bad, it made his groundwork training much easier. While he is still learning to accept oral meds and stand nicely for our farrier, he is coming around quite nicely in other parts of his training! He is good for trailer loading and doesn't mind standing tied. He really enjoys the company of his equine friends and is working on becoming more independent when away from them. He gets along well with both mares and geldings, but his adopter should be reminded that he was gelded at 10, so his stud-like tendencies still come out at times. He has never been aggressive towards other horses or humans, however, so with some extra training we think he'd do well in many different herds! Stu still tends to be on the nervous side but has come such a far way from the man he was when he first arrived. He has not been started under saddle here at the Ranch and will need an advanced adopter and professional trainer to continue his training if he is adopted as a riding horse. This 10-year-old Thoroughbred has a full life ahead of him and we can't wait to see where life takes him! Adoption Fee: $700Height: 15.3hhMaximum Carrying Weight (includes tack and rider): 185lbs

Adopt STU and Receive Dogecoin
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, STU's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is STU's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the STU, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming STU's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 STU was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, STU’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the STU’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, STU’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin 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!
