Quarter Horse Gelding for Sale in La Plata, MD
Horse up for adoption,Serious inquiries only.
16 year old AQH (gelding) approx. 15-15.5 HH... In June of last year had an accident that injured his left “bicep”. Have spent considerable time rehabilitating him back to health under the direction of and in collaboration with Tidewater Veterinary Clinic... He has been on stall rest and will need work to get back to his previous level.
Previously, he was trained in cutting and was an excellent horse that even kids and beginners could ride. However, due to previous injury, he would be best suited for trail riding or as a pet, after some work (needs some longeing).
You’ll need to pick him up in Southern Maryland All medical documentation on file with the vet; up to date on all shots (including coggins), farrier trims, and deworming, but could probably use a dental visit.
Again serious inquiries only.

About La Plata, MD
According to an unconfirmed local story, the town was named by one Colonel Samuel Chapman, whose family owned 6,000 acres (24 km 2) of land in Charles County. The Colonel traveled to South America with his son George, who had contracted tuberculosis, in search of a cure. In his travels, the Colonel had apparently encountered the Río de la Plata, which flows through Argentina and Uruguay, thus naming a portion of his property "La Plata." In the 1870s, a section of the Pennsylvania Railroad had been constructed through the town of La Plata, leading to its 1888 incorporation. The La Plata courthouse had been built soon after the 1819 Port Tobacco courthouse caught fire in 1895 under suspicious circumstances. In 1904, the historic Christ Episcopal Church in Port Tobacco, which dates to 1683 and was reconstructed in 1884, was dismantled and its stones were then transported by oxen and cart to its current lot in La Plata.
