Boston is the type of horse that anyone can ride or drive. He has been on a lot of trail rides and has a very willing attitude. His friendly behavior makes him a lot of people’s favorite to take rides on.

Boston has done almost everything here on our farm. He gets along great with other horses in the pasture and is a pleasure to be around.... (read more) Drives single or double. Boston does not spook at even the biggest truck flying by in traffic. He will ride English or western and doesn’t seem to care which. He has a great canter for a horse his size.

Boston loves to be around kids. He stands nicely to tack up and to mount. Boston also stands nice for the farrier and loves to get a bath. He loads easily into trailers.

Here is a great horse that is absolutely beginner safe but is still a blast to ride or drive.
