Personality
Very timid, and reluctant. Lio is thought to have once been very exited and eager. When threatened or scared, Lio does nothing but cower, or shy away. He refuses to fight back, and seems to just accept whatever injury could come from the threat. He is very tolerant of other horses, but seems to get nervous around anything taller, or larger than he is. We have plans on pairing him up with a stable mate.

Fears and triggers
-Large objects/animals
-Loud noises
-Fences

When we found him, Lio was scrawny, malnourished and covered in dirt. He didn't have a known name, so we got to choose what to call him. Lio was put in a small outdoor corral which was in worse condition than he was. He once belonged to an old woman, who had no idea how to take care of a horse. He was never tamed, or trained, but he seems to be fine with us being near him. He doesn't trust us yet, but we are working on getting him into the trailor.

It took almost an hour, but we got Lio into the trailer, by coaxing him in with an apple. We didn't want to make him nervous by using a halter or rope. He doesn't trust us yet, but after all he's been through, I'm not surprised.

Lio is doing very well in Snowy Owl Stables. He's still very thin, but is making a slow recovery. We keep him in our large paddock, with a run-in stall, where he can mind his business. He is still nervous around other horses, but is warming up to them. He sometimes will hang around the fence that separates him and the other horses. We can tell he's trying to get over his fear.
