Vixie is quiet, sweet (albeit sometimes pushy as tends to be the case with drafts), and the closest thing to bombproof we’ve ever seen. We have yet to find anything that spooks this girl.
We don’t support any beginner riding without their instructor present, but other than that our only hesitation about letting a beginner lease her would be that she's still fairly new to being an arena horse instead of plodding down a trail and we don’t want someone teaching her bad habits at this stage! So she is absolutely the horse you can give your child or significant other pony rides on with zero worries. As a bonus, she feels like a couch to ride bareback.
Vixie is half leased by a teenager who is working on teaching her dressage and we are looking to fill the other half of her dance card. She currently lacks stamina but is solid WT and just starting to canter under saddle and be introduced to crossrails. She has been off property to shows twice so far, and was very safe and steady.
