Sherman is a sweet, beautiful, well bred sorrel gelding, 5years old, 14.1 hands tall. Very gentle!! We bought Sherman as an unbroke two year old and we have spent the last three years training him with a gentle hand. He is VERY well bred, as you can see by his papers and his breeding shows; as he is very smart, athletic and versatile. Sherman will come up to you when you walk in field and want his halter on. He stands very quiet while tied, bathed, groomed, picking feet, saddled and mounted. He has perfect ground manners and will lead and follow you anywhere. He is super safe and easy for kids to handle and ride! He has no bad habits at all, no biting, kicking, or chewing. If you are looking for an all around horse that is willing to do ANYTHING this is the horse for your family. He would make a good intermediate child’s pony or an adult looking for something smaller to ride but beefy enough to carry an adult. He is experienced in jumping, hunter, cattle cutting, extreme trail class, fox hunting, reining, 4-H, contesting, trail riding, and camping on a picket line, we have done A LOT with him and he has done it all with a willing and great attitude. He has power steering both neck reining and english direct reining and has an awesome stop. He backs and side passes both ways. He rides with an english bit, western bit, and a hackamore. Sherman knows his leads very well and has been to several horse shows, including the last three years for a week at the Franklin County Fair. We have camped with him, and he has been ridden at many parks including the Allegheny Mountains in PA. I spent the winter in Arizona with him in 2021, riding him for 3 to 4 hours 5 days week in the desert on hard gravel for 4 months he has never taken a lame step or ever acted tender footed. We guarantee him 100% sound. We rode him in the 4th of July parade with bands, horns, floats and he was perfect! He can lead or follow and will ride alone with no problems. We have ridden him with huge groups of 25 horses or more and he was perfect. He has a great working walk and can keep up with the big horses without you having to trot to keep up. He swims, goes through creeks, mud, and bridges. He will stand quiet but then will jump the moon if you ask him to, gallop at full speed and come right back down to a walk. We ride him on the rail trail with dogs, bikes, and rollerbladers, and he doesn't mind at all. He jumps right up in the trailer and hauls great. UTD on Coggins, vaccines, teeth and feet. We really LOVE this pony, we have put a lot of time into his training to make sure he is a great partner. If you are looking for a safe, safe, safe adorable, and talented pony that can take you anywhere you want to go, trust me, horses/ponies like Sherman are hard to find! My daughter and I specialize in training ponies for kids. We have been doing it for 15 years and have a lot of references. Text or call me, Veronica at 614-216-1773 I would love to talk t
