Lolita is a fabulous 12 year old mare. She is confident, does not spook, has a wonderfully willing attitude and is always keen to work for you alone or in a group. She is a cheerful and cooperative horse for all ages, was started by a thirteen year old girl and has excelled at both youth and adult lessons. She took a ten year old to her first shows where she placed third in the National Virtual Show in Youth Four Gait with a 5.3 and has also placed third in another National Virtual Show in the Open Individual Four Gait Class with a 6. 0, scoring up to 6.5 for fast tolt and 6.0 for trot, canter and walk. In addition her strong trot and canter would make her an excellent choice for someone wanting to do dressage, working equitation or jumping. While Lólíta is super calm, safe and well educated, we don’t feel like she would fit for a total beginner. She would do best with a rider who has some experience in the saddle because she does respond to the leg, which means that accidental kicks or other signals will be responded to with forward movement. And while any novice rider and above will enjoy this calm forward response, a total beginner may miscue her and ask for a forward response they did not intend. Lólíta is a unique and special mare with her striking color, exuberant presence under saddle, bravery and endless stamina on the trail and easy going attitude. She has been well loved by everyone in her life so far and has served many of us well, but life circumstances for the owner are making it necessary to let her go. So now it’s time for her to find her forever home with someone who adores and treats her like the little queen that she is.
