16 year old grade gelding for companion only.
Pros. Leads, loads, soft ties, good for Farrier, good feet, good teeth, respectful on the ground, easy keeper, very low maintenance, sweet and kind, like a big dog will follow you around, easy to catch. All around fun guy, loves to do obstacle, and have a job.
Loves attention, respects kids on ground. No bite or kick. Very, very smart. Does liberty. Like I said fun guy. Is best with a quiet kind hand, he is not stupid by any means. Very soft, can lead with hay string.
Cons.
Very negative experience under saddle prior in his life and a saddle terrifies him. I have ridden him, but hes a flipper.
Companion only.
Afraid of men, Bits, and saddles make him whale eye and brainless.
Flips.
Companion only.
Tends to pester ponies and donkeys when bored.
Very cowy.
When stressed he gets sour bellied I will send his supplements. Never colic in the 3 years iv had him.
My older kids have gone off to collage, my husband works away, before I get behind I need to lighten my load. No trailer to haul him.
