Flynt was simply too much horse for his owner and yet she wanted to ensure his safety by asking that Rainbow Meadows accept him into their program. He was adopted and with his new family for nearly two years when the grandkids began to grow up and head off to school and he was not being ridden so he was returned to the rescue. Flynt is a truly nice guy. He can be a dominant and opinionated but behaves well with a qualified rider/handler.
