Hank is ready to go all the time. He truly is a gaiting machine. He’s confident and a leader. He needs an experienced rider, that knows their way with gaited horses. When not gaiting, he can put up a bit of a fight. He’s trained using natural horsemanship. Yields his hinds quarter, shoulders, etc. He goes through water, bridges, not afraid of cars, dogs, etc. Rides well in the arena and on the trails. Prefers to ride with other horses. Hank clips, trailers, ties, and does great with the Ferrier aka my husband! My kiddos groom him, he is a very loving boy.
