“These assessments are based on how these horses respond in their current environment and any change in their current environment, riders, diet, etc could have an effect on the horses' immediate performance. Horses need time to adjust when moved to new surroundings. We highly recommend you visit, spend time with the equines and evaluate the equine before making a decision"

General Health	Score		Score
Maintains weight well	A	Teeth in good condition	A - due for a float
Hooves in good condition	A	Overall is Healthy	A
Explain overall Health: She is in excellent health, very sound. Stays fat on coastal and grass pasture. She does not need grain, I gave her small amts of “Safe and Sound” as a treat and it gave her diarrhea. She loves treats! She doesn’t like apples, though.

Social Skills	Score		Score
Responds well to people	A	Gets along with mares	Z
Can touch face	A	Gets along with geldings	A
Can touch ears	A
Explain overall socialization: She is best friends with a TB gelding, who is dominant. They get along very well. She’s not a squealer

Ground Manners	Score		Score
Easy to catch	B/C	Picks up feet for farrier	A
Easy to load	Z	Easy to Bathe	A
Easy to halter	B	Easy to Trim	A
Easy to lead	A	Easy to Fly Spray	Wipe on only
Ties	A	Kicks	No
Explain manners: When she was delivered to me, I was told she hopped right in the trailer, I’ve never trailered her myself. She can play games when you want to catch her, but overall is fine. I think she was smacked with the crown of the halter when haltering in her previous life because she is wary about being hit, if you go slowly, she’s fine. She’s great with her feet, but she will test. You must mean it when you ask. If she knows you know, you won’t have any problems. She does not like fly spray! Must be wiped on.

Riding Skills	Score		Score
Stands while being tacked	A	Walks	A
Stands while being mounted	A	Trots	B - rushes
Easily moves out	A	Lopes/Canters	N - rushes
Does well on trails	A - very bold	Runs	Z
Does well in arenas	A	Backs up	B
Explain overall training: She has had an easy time at pasture and stalled at night. Occasionally ridden around the pasture and neighborhood, taken a few English lessons. She loves going out on the trail and is bold, interested, and moves out well. Fun to ride! When working in the pasture, she shows she’s still a bit green. She will lean on the corners and be difficult to steer on a circle. She will rush in her up transitions – trot and canter. She will resist cantering, and once in the gait she will rush. Her down transitions are easy. Has no issues whatsoever with poles or small jumps. She will take advantage of a timid person. I think she’d be spectacular as a cart horse. She is smart, beautiful, sassy, opinionated, expressive, she’s a great little horse!
