Raku is an engaging, friendly and curious horse looking for the right partner. She loves attention, and gets along well with people and other horses. Raku is athletic and quick, and shows an aptitude for performance discuplies. She enjoys getting out on trails. She is sensitive and responsive, and will succeed with an equally sensitive, tactful rider. Raku is starting her training under saddle, and will need a professional calibre rider to bring her along. She can be reactive, and needs help building trust in the rider. She has been backed in the round pen, and ponied extensively on trails. She is brave in her environment, and has excellent ground manners. She is easy to catch, lead, tie, longe, groom, etc. She has been trained using classical horsemanship techniques, natural horsemanship, and both positive and negative reinforcement. She is healthy and up to date on dental work and vaccines. She is wearing her first set of four shoes. Raku suffered neglect, and has been carefully rehabilitated over two years with Robyn McCallister at Horse ReCourse. Her adoption fee will help us support more horses like Raku.
