From Humane Society of Missouri - Longmeadow

This handsome Arabian gelding came to Longmeadow at the end of 2025. He went through his routine quarantine and was evaluated by our trainers as soon as his quarantine ended.Upon evaluation, our trainers found Gambit to be a bit wiggly during grooming and tacking, but he improved as he became more familiar and comfortable in his environment. He needed etiquette reminders from the trainers while standing tied but did better when he had an equine buddy nearby. Although his handler will need to provide gentle but firm corrections when handling Gambit in a new environment, it should be said that this gelding is incredibly endearing, and when he’s mentally present, his intelligence really shines. He has an active, curious mind, which is a real strength of his when he is focused on a task.Gambit has been trained under saddle and has been ridden in our indoor arena at the walk (with a couple surprise trots thrown in!) on a lunge line. With thoughtful, consistent work, we think his Arabian energy can be channeled into something really productive. The biggest focus in his training at the moment is helping him stay connected and engaged rather than taking in every detail of his…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
