**THIS HORSE IS LOCATED IN Parks, AZ**

Kaava is simply a solid, athletic, mighty-mouse of a mustang. He is fun, intelligent, and adventurous. Kaava completed his training (ranch foundations) so quickly that in my amusement I even taught him a few tricks, like the humble bow in the video (I don’t usually teach horses gimmicks/tricks as they have nothing to do with horsemanship or good horses). I thoroughly enjoy trail running with him (running with my own feet beside him); and that is something I have really only done with some of my best horses. I always enjoy our rides loping through the woods, jumping water and logs. He is about as amiable as a horse can be and is always making friendly introductions with new dogs and other animals. He is definitely one of those horses that ‘has a lot of heart’ and although are more difficult to work with at first, they are always the best horses. Personally, I get along well with horses like Kaava because of their intelligence and spirit (the difficult things).

As with all of my horses, Kaava doesn’t need anything besides his comfortable halter (he has been ridden in a snaffle, but not by me). Kaava has graduated his fundamentals and has an excellent understanding of moving from the seat, cueing easily from leg pressure in a walk, trot, or lope. He breezed through the advanced technique that you see in the video, like walk and trot on the diagonal, spins, side-passing, etc. Take note that I am not using my hands at all except in some instances, like trotting around trees, to make quick corrections if needed—you can trot and weave your way through the forest using only seat and legs, but he is still a colt with a mind of his own and he is shorter than most branches. When riding in groups he always just puts his nose down and follows everyone, which is his normal herd behavior unless you are carrying oats: he will do anything for those. When we are alone (which is almost always), he enjoys stretching out and exploring.

Kaava is currently (and has been for months) my only horse and my last horse for sale this year (quality not quantity). I only offer a few horses for sale each year. I never work with more than two horses at a time. My horses travel and work with me and they spend their days being horses on our 80 acre property learning to be themselves and develop independently, not stuck in a stall or circled around arenas, bored to death. Aside from excursions to new wilderness in our area, Kaava travels at least every few weeks. After Kaava’s first ride, he learned everything outside on the trail (if there was a trail).

Kaava has been around Arizona with me, punchin' cattle down south (besides chasing out the neighbor’s cattle regularly) and packin' with the mules up north. He has been hauled in every type of trailer (stock, slant, two horse), which includes hopping in trailers with unfamiliar h
