Temperament: Cruz can be a bit timid when his dam is around.  He can be difficult to catch but once caught is respectful and well mannered.  He is a typical spunky youngster who is ready for some training and needs a job to do.

Physical problems / health issues: None

Interaction with horses: He gets along well with other horses. He’s not aggressive but not docile.

Interaction with people: He will approach you but on his terms and can be a bit hard to catch.  He is pretty easily enticed by a treat and once he is haltered and on a lead he is really quite well mannered for his age and his training status.

History: Donated in lieu of a seizure

Training / abilities: Cruz will lead and can be groomed and trimmed.  He has had some work lunging in the round pen and is ready to start his training.  He seems to have the right attitude to be a nice riding horse with training. 

Experience level required to work with this horse: Intermediate. But needs training

Has this horse ever:  Bucked? While playing with other horses. Reared?  In play Kicked?  In play Bitten? No Other?

Ground handling: Catch?  Yes with work Lead?  Yes Tie? Trailer?  Clip? Trim Feet?  Yes  Bathe?

Special needs: None

Other comments: Cruz is a beautiful horse.  He is strong and intelligent.  He needs a good home where he will be trained and have a forever job to do.  He learns fast and is willing to please once he understands what is needed which usually doesn’t take very long. He just needs someone to give him something to do.  Cruz is a real eye catcher and with training should be an amazing horse.
