Offered for consideration is Arthur. He was formerly used as a hunt seat lesson horse and will jump 2’ nicely. He has been shown at open level hunter shows. He was purchased for a client that decided she wants something over 16 hands so by no fault of his own he is on the market. However we are like the Wild West down here, don’t ride english and don’t jump so he’s out of his element but he’s taking it all in stride! Absolutely no buck, bolt, rear, kick or ugly behavior of any kind. He is easy to catch and has nice manners. Good with other horses. Loves bathing and grooming. Loads and hauls nicely. Rides great in the arena. Picks up both leads with ease. No barn or buddy issues. Has a nice handle in just a snaffel bit. Not sure about his former trail ride experience but every time we have taken him out he seems to really enjoy it. He is super brave with a ‘lead’ horse but has no problem riding away or being alone. He is not being advertised as ‘bomb proof’ but he is not a fool! If you can ride you will really enjoy this nice big gelding. He is barefoot and 100% sound with NO MAINTENANCE! Good with his feet. No ‘holes’ that we have found in this horse other than…. FULL DISCLOSURE…..he DOES NOT like my pot bellied pig!!! He is scared of her! I guess if that’s the only thing wrong with him it’s not that bad. Vet checks are fully welcome at buyers expense. This video was taken today. He has not been ridden for 3 wks.
