Additional Comments

Atlas has led quite the life. He was born in Lancaster, PA, on an Amish working farm, but I adopted him at 4 months old to take him to my family hobby farm in Maryland. There he became a family pet and was ponied on trails until he turned 2 and could be started under western saddle. We even drove him up the East coast to enjoy some New England riding with him. He was very curious on trails and always kept his head up, but he wasn't nervous. Right before he turned 3, we moved and flew him to be with us in Italy.... (read more) There he was boarded, and we learned he has perfect barn etiquette as well as golden retriever energy. After COVID, I re-started him with a trainer in arena work and found out that this big boy is so smart and light on his feet, he would be an amazing western dressage prospect! The trainer also did basic driving training with him, and he has the instincts for it. We came back to Arizona at the beginning of 2022, and he has not been ridden since. He is still very loved and gets regular groundwork but would need a refresher under the saddle. He is playful and loves to run more than any draft I've ever known.
