Midge is a gorgeous 13 hand haflinger mare that is extremely gentle, safe and kind. She’s the best & we really love her so she will only be sold to the very best home. She is stout with good bone and a good foot and can carry a grown person with ease. She is really broke and is soft in the face, carries her head level and has a great stop.... (read more) She goes on a loose rein and jogs around cute and will lope right off when asked. She is super easy to ride and a joy every time you step on her. She doesn’t care about anything you want to do with her.
Midge is the ULTIMATE ranch pony suitable for all tasks needed including gathering, penning, driving cattle up the allies and loading trucks. The kids have drug calves on her. She’s perfect to go prowl pastures looking for strays or to check fence lines. She has also been ponied off another horse, She will stay ride beside the lead horse.
She’s been used at junior rodeos to move bucking stock, push the roping cattle up and push bucking bulls back to the gates. We’ve tracked and roped the sled and live cattle on her. She’ll track right in behind one and shows a lot of interest. She could make a really cool rope horse finished out.
If you don’t have a ranch no worries because Midge is also a fantastic trail riding pony. She’s really fun to take on trails and will go anywhere through brush, across water, up and down steep hills, over logs and bridges and down the road. She’ll ride out alone just as good as she will with a group.
If you want a fancy out of the ordinary pony that is broke to death, super safe, gorgeous and has athletic ability then here she is. Midge has absolutely no bad habits or vices. She stands for the farrier, ties, bathes, loads and hauls with ease.
Sliding K Performance Horses
The SLIDING K has been active in the reining horse industry for over 35 years. We strongly believed in giving the two year olds we started a solid foundation on which they start their reining or desired careers of which they took successfully. We took the extra time to ensure our young stars were started quietly and correctly before they moved into the demanding training program required for a reiner or their desired careers....

We still do offer selling not only reining, but trail riding, ranch riding, roping, cattle work, Ranch Trail and much more as well as lessons, teaching you and your horse how to unit together as one! No matter what you do as a discipline with your horse.
Throughout the years, we have been privileged to build many fine teams of riders and horses by matching the horses we sell with the correct owners-riders or riders-owners with the correct horses. We took special care and personal interest in assisting our amateur horse people and non-pro riders with finding the best Non-pro, Ranch Riding, Roping, and above all, great Trail Riding prospect (as all horses should be able to be enjoyed out of the arena as well), available that match the abilities and needs of both the horse and the rider. Fitting for many years over 150 matches a year.
Our other SERVICES we offer ARE: counseling over phone, FB PM, Text or email, even with video, of any problems you may have with your horse. Also setting you up with shot, worming, showing or feeding programs your horses should be on given your environment and locations. Along with equipment you may need to handle or ride your horse with, given your discipline choice of riding! Really just anything you need help with we are here for you!
