Cartoon is sweet, kind natured, and very independent - hacks, trailers, works well with no other horses around. Enjoys trails and exploring new places. Truly excellent ground manners, stands quietly and patiently for farrier, vet, braiding, baths. LOVES children, loads and trailers well, no vices, no health issues, gets along great with other horses. Ridden and shown exclusively by an amateur since acquired in 2022. 2025 was his first year showing due to owners time constraints. Has been to all local shows plus Temecula and DIHP. He requires no prep and is the same horse at home and shows. Born 2017 and is 15.2hh. Don’t let his size fool you, this guy has a huge stride and gets down the lines easily. Cartoon is a kick ride that prefers a longer, more relaxed frame, yet is adjustable and capable of being quicker when needed, making him a great candidate for the three-ring. He has consistent (almost auto) lead changes, is extremely careful, and jumps with excellent technique and style. He has never knocked a pole! He would be ideal for the Children’s Hunters at 2’6”–2’9”, and with professional guidance, moving up to 3’3” is well within reach. Currently schooling 3’3” at home and showing in the .90m jumpers. He is still building stamina and can become mentally fatigued, as he is a bit of a perfectionist. He gives his best effort the first time through and may overthink when repeating exercises frequently. VIDEO: https://youtu.be/PSW4gbjukWc
