RE: [RC] Blind in One Eye Horse - Jerry & Susan Milam
I had
a good friend who bought a hunter jumper who was blind in one eye. Some crazy
teenager at a show stuck her finger in his eye at a show while he was stalled
because he was too hard to beat. He did fine even at jumping. I think they can
do incredible things if given time to adapt to their
problem.

Horse
This group has, by far, some of
the most experienced voices around when it comes to horses. I am
thinking about taking in a horse who is blind in one eye. She appears to
be well trained, in good health, etc. What has been your experience in
handling a horse like this and riding one? I doubt that she'll be an
endurance prospect, probably a trail horse around home.
