COWBOY IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!
Here's what his trainer Dani Jeitz has to say about him...
Cowboy has impeccable ground manners. He can be difficult to catch, but once he knows you are safe, he will wait quietly for you to come to him.
He is light in the face. I have ridden him in a snaffle and correction bit. Both work nicely and he is comfortable in either of them. He takes a bit quietly. He does need a little work on his stop and backup, he has a stop, but he kind of runs it out.... (read more) The first few times I saddled him, he moved around a bit, he now stands quietly as he knows I’m not going to over cinch or rush him. He does have a bit of anxiety in the arena but is head down and calm out on the trail. I don’t think he has a lot of trail experience, but he sure enjoys it. He’s seen a lot of new things, but never spooked and took everything in stride.
He walks out nicely, can lead, be in the middle or at the end. He has an amazing trot out on trail. His gaits seem to be more rushed and uncertain in the arena, though he does walk, trot and canter on the correct lead in both directions.
He stands quietly for a bath, grooming and braiding. You can clean his feet, put on boots (I used Cavallo’s as I was uncertain how he would fare barefoot at N. Shore Camanche).
Crosses water, though if deep enough he would like to stop for a quick roll. ?
I have put quite a bit of time on this little guy in a week and he’s been up for all the challenges. We worked during the bad weather (wind), and he is solid. I really like this little gelding and he will make someone an amazing partner. I think he would do best with his own person out on trail while working up to more arena time.
Cowboy's adoption fee is $2500. Please visit our website at visit our website to fill out an application and adoption agreement with the name COWBOY at the top.
