We first saw Scout at a horse auction. He was a tiny, terrified weanling who should still have been with his mother. Either completely unhandled, abused, or both, he stood wide-eyed and afraid with an older stud mini pony he had been brought in with. After successfully bidding to save Scout from an uncertain fate, he arrived at the Little Red Barn. He immediately bonded with Scotty the large Belgium, feeling safe, secure and protected. He has slowly learned to trust people, although he continues to be fearful of any touching on his body. He is slowly coming out of his shell, with his natural curiosity and joyfulness. We introduced Scout to Sonny, another mini weanling and they have become fast best friends. Scout and Sonny can be seen racing around the pastures and through the forest under the watchful, wise eyes of gentle, old Scotty.
