Even the best-bred horses with all the potential in the world can end up in a perilous situation once they are sold and get into the cycle of being “passed around” from owner to owner.
One such horse who was fortunate enough to find a happy future is Cobra One, a 2002 Danish Warmblood stallion who was imported to the US from Denmark with a bright future ahead of him. His competition and breeding career was launched in Kentucky.
After several successful breeding seasons, he was sold on, and it was from then that he found himself in less than ideal conditions. At one point, Cobra One (Cape Town S, by Caletto I x Hogholm’s Folia, by Carano) was involved in a neglect case, living in a cow barn with no other horses around. He was being heavily bred and barely cared for.
