Meet Patriot!
Patriot is broke to ride and drive in about every form you could ask for.There were no short cuts taken in this sweet guy’s training.
A good friend raised this horse then he was trained for the last two years on my family’s Amish farm where he became acquainted with and experienced almost every situation you could imagine from doing farm work to working the garden to going to town in the buggy and even bringing cows up from the field. My nephews are incredible horsemen and really gave him the human connection and solid foundation that every horse deserves.
Since then we have been working on more formal training in terms of classical dressage and he is absolutely as willing as you could ever ask for and has excellent self carriage with an incredible hind leg for going up the levels.
There’s not many 6 year olds that I would say are truly 100% safe to just send off down a trail with literally any kind of beginner but Patriot is about as close to that you could get. Any age or level of rider will enjoy him down the trail. He has smooth gaits and is uncomplicated to ride. Ride or drive him any way you want and he is up for the task. Rides English, western, and bareback. Ride him two handed with contact or one handed on a loose rein.
On the ground there’s just nothing you could fault him on. He loves to be brushed, groomed, and bathed. He will stand tied anywhere and is a pleasure to be around. He’s a very happy and sweet horse that loves attention and humans.
If you are looking for a horse that could literally go any direction whether it’s western, dressage, driving, down the trails, or just a sweet family horse, he could do it and be amazing at it.
He’s really a one of a kind horse that everyone enjoys!
