Temperament:
This gelding is very
friendly, good tempered,
easy to catch, leads
well. He follows me
around like a puppy dog
if no other horses are
around. He definitely
loves to be loved on!
Physical problems /
health issues:
None known.
Interaction with horses:
Gets along with other
horses, unless pushed by
another male. He is
afraid of overly
dominant horses. He was
picked on A LOT at his
previous home. He has
finally gotten
comfortable with my 2
mares but if my gelding
even looks at him funny
he runs the other
direction.
Interaction with people:
He is good with people.
Loves to be brushed and
washed.
History:
Unknown
Training / abilities:
I have ridden him a few
times and he is very
gentle. A bit lazy but
that is good for anyone
wanting a horse for
their kids. You have to
give him a little extra
push to get him going.
He needs a little work
with the bit and reins.
I don't think it is
because he is stubborn I
just don't think he has
had much practice. He
does not neck rein, but
he will direct rein. He
has to actually feel the
bit being pulled. He
does not fight you when
you do, so it is likely
he was never taught to
neck rein. I doubt it
would take any time at
all to fix that problem.
He has been ridden by
children and he did
great. The only thing
left to test him on is
if he is as calm and
controllable outside the
ring as he is in the
ring. I am almost
positive that he will
be.
