This gorgeous gelding has the looks, the brains, and the training to match. He’s fancy broke with all the buttons in the arena and is a steady mountain goat out on the trails. Selling due to his companion passing away, and I don't plan on getting any more horses; hoping to find him the perfect new person and herd.

Personality
- Super easy to get along with and eager to please
- No vices or bad habits
- First to greet you at the gate. He’ll hear you opening the trailer door or grabbing a halter and will walk right over to wait for you.
- Can leave in the pasture for a couple months and hop on, he’ll be excited to get back to work but not a totally different horse.
- Neighbors set off fireworks right next to our turnout multiple times a year, Echo does not get nervous or care. He babysits the other horses through it, even when he was the youngest in my herd.
- He’s FUN and personable. He’ll play with the giant horse soccer balls, he’ll come running over when you call him from across the pasture or arena, he’ll neigh when he sees you, he’ll be playful during liberty work (not every day, as he’s not go go go) – this is definitely a horse you can bond with.

Training
- On the trail, great with speeding mountain bikes, loose dogs, quads and dirt bikes, and riding next to busy roads.
- Extensive groundwork training… Round pen, lunge, liberty work, and tricks.
- He’s fancy broke with all the buttons—side passes, pivots, stops on a dime, soft in the face, collects up, moves off your legs, and lopes beautiful circles. Ditch the bridle and ride without, Echo will take care of everything if you know how to ride with your seat and leg aids.
- Out on the trail, rough terrain and technical trails are no problem. He’ll take his time with tricky parts and pick his way through, doesn’t try to rush it. Will ride out alone or in a group.

Potential Cons
- Does not want to be an arena only show horse. He loves getting lots of time out exploring on the trails and is happiest doing that. If you can only ride in the arena for a while, he’d be happier with some trail obstacles or cows mixed in to your regular training routine.
- He would be best suited to be owned by an intermediate and up rider. He’s great with beginners, boyfriends, and the family kids, but I think he has too many fancy buttons to be with a total beginner full-time or be someone’s first horse.
- Echo has always been provided with ample turnout time with other horses, usually 24/7. I don’t know how he’d take to living full time in a stall or being boarded with no turnout.

Health
- Reining bred; He is thick boned, stout, and has NOT been ridden into the ground.
- No maintenance and easy keeper – he gets free choice grass hay
- Has always had routine vet, dental, and farrier care
- Strong hooves, can go barefoot or stay in shoes.
