He ended his career due to knee injuries. It seemed that fate smiled on Metro, he found new loving owners, but soon they learned from the vet that the horse had only a few years left to live…

Metro is a smart and graceful horse. There was a time when he ran faster than the wind. The new owner of the subway, Ron Krajewski, was stunned by the news about the animal’s incurable diagnosis.

Over the years, Metro had damaged his knee joints from training and doctors assumed that after a few years the joints would completely lose mobility and the horse would have to be put to sleep.

Ron took this news hard and began to think about how to light up the last years of Metro’s life. Method found. He decided to teach the horse how to draw because he is also an artist by profession.

He served in Alaska, engaged in fishing there, and only at the age of 40 did he discover his talent as a painter.

And so Ron taught Metro to draw. At first he taught to hold the brush in the mouth, then to pass it over the canvas.Metro has mastered everything very well.He seemed to like everything.

It is interesting that the works of Metro soon attracted the interest of journalists and then collectors.

Art connoisseurs are ready to pay 50 to 500 USD for Metro’s work.Several hundred paintings have been sold to date.

Metro earned money for his treatment: the vets tried to inject him with an innovative drug and managed to stop further deformation of the knee joints. So, Metro has earned a few more years of life for itself.
