Additional Comments
Howdy! Splash is a 12y/o, 14.2hh gorgeous red roan Quarter horse/Gypsy Vanner X gelding. For being on the shorter side, pics don't accurately show just how stout & stocky he is! Splash is put together nicely & has the most stunning coloring! He lightens up even more when he sheds out! Seriously..he will absolutely get you noticed!! He is barefoot & UTD on wormer, trim, coggins, vaccines, dental float, & vet exam. We also have his identical brother.... (read more) (They could be sold together as a team if desired.) The boys have been used as a driving team for parades, wagon rides & other events. Road/town/traffic safe & has been around crowds of people with no issues. Splash is not currently broken to drive single but could easily be trained. He will stand to mount, harness, hitch, bridle, groom, bathe, ties, loads, & hauls. He stands for the farrier. He gets along nicely in our mixed herd & is an easy keeper. While the girls can ride him anywhere & everywhere, we recommend an advanced begginer rider & up due to him being athletic & forward when asked. He is not uncontrollable at all, & has never bucked, bolted, reared, kicked, etc.. He just has no problem picking up the pace with a little kick. Splash has a nice w/t/c & will walk on a loose rein all day long. If you want him to move out, he will easily do so. He moves around a ring nicely, but isn't fancy broke yet. ( Meaning he does not have english training.) We have taken him over jumps & obstacles. He does great & could easily fox hunt! Splash has been great to haul off property & to take on trails. He travels where you point him, whether he's alone or with a group. He is sure footed & will cover any types of terrain, & has the stamina to go on long rides. He would be great to take on camping trips, or out of state long distance rides even! For being smaller, hes happy to keep up with gaited horses or even the full size drafts! Again, he doesnt mind slowing it down to a relaxed stroll though either. We ride him into crazy town next to traffic, into the drive-thru for lunch, over bridges, & he happily greets folks along the way. He attracts all of the attention when he's in public with his gorgeous looks! Splash is easy to get along with & has a friendly personality. While he tolerated a lot of the "tricks" we do for desensitizing work, he isn't dead to the world. The worst he's done is get a little antsy & start moving around/away. But hey.. in his defense were were waving flags & smoke bombs in his face! Splash would be great for camping trips, trails, fox hunts, lessons, driving double, parades, & more! He could easily go on to do some cross country, ranch work, or finish him out to be a fancy english show mount! His age, versatility, athleticism, ton of try, & work ethic would make him suitable for anything! His brother is just like him as far as looks, size, temperament, riding level, etc... Splash is stout enough to carry larger adult riders without issues. Please do not inquire asking if he's suitable for your 3yr old who's never ridden. He'd be fine for a child as long as they are comfortable at the canter, or have a trainer.
