Temperament: Indy is a strong-willed, beautiful mare with a lot of talent. She has a very strong personality and a bit of an attitude. With the wrong handler, she is too much to deal with. But with a strong handler who will give her the proper discipline, she has the potential to be a SPECTACULAR dressage horse.


Physical problems / health issues: None.

Interaction with horses: Does fine with dominant mares. She has some dominant tendencies with other horses.

Interaction with people: Indy doesn’t like being tied very much. She’s fine unless someone walks by, then she will nip at them. Whoever is grooming/working with her is fine, but random people coming into her space bother her.

History: Donated to HfH.

Training / abilities: Indy is trained in dressage. She can sidepass at the walk and trot, and has a nice piaffe. She got her first premium for movement as a 3 mo old. She will be going for her Training Level One soon.

Experience level required to work with this horse: Experienced. Indy can be hard-headed and take advantage of a handler who isn’t strong with her. She is doing fine with her current foster mom, who is an experienced trainer. 

Has this horse ever:  Bucked?  Reared?  Kicked?  Bitten? She has nipped at people. Other?  

Ground handling: Catch? Lead? Tie? Yes, but she doesn’t like people walking past her. Trailer? Clip? Trim Feet? Bathe?

Special needs: Indy would do best with someone experienced in dressage who has worked with bringing up young horses before. 

Other comments: Indy has the potential to be an amazing show horse. With the right partnership, there is no limit to what she could do.
