**Currently on Trial**
SPREE is a 7-year-old quarter horse paint who loves quick, western work. This no-nonsense, great-minded girl can, and wants to, do the work and do it right. Perfect for gymkhana (she just ran A and AA times at her first show at the Monterey Posse Grounds!! and LOVED it). She stands about 14.2 and is built strong and solid. She is well-mannered, quiet, but FAST. She loves to run! She'll enter and exit the show ring quietly, then run like the wind for the event itself, or just for fun if you love to go fast. No buck, bite, or bad habits. Stands beautifully for the farrier, loads and hauls with no issues at all, and is UTD on all her shots, wormer, teeth, etc. NOT mare-ish, excellent with other horses (she is not a fan of drama of any kind and will avoid it whenever possible). She also loves kids and takes care of whoever is riding her. She's been trained both in the arena and on trails, and is currently being introduced to the flag. Message us using the form below for videos from her recent gymkhana show and/or for additional pictures or information. TO A GREAT HOME ONLY, WHERE SHE WILL BE USED FOR WHAT SHE LOVES and be well cared for!! This one is a GEM and we will only adopt to the right home! Adoption fee: $4,500 |
**ADOPTED!!**
COCO BRUCE (named by our friends from Haven of Hope group foster homes) is a nearly two-year-old mustang gelding trained in
Clinton Anderson's Colt Starting and Fundamentals Groundwork. He has the look of a quarter horse. Since he is just a little too young to bear a rider's weight, he has been trained with the bareback pad, saddled & cinched, been on trails, hobbling, trailering, and ground manners. He is able to stand for the farrier and has extensive desensitizing work (tarp, plastic bag, etc.) so that he is calm and respectful. .So far, he is our fastest learner! With his flaxen mane and curious, friendly attitude, he will be a fabulous addition to a home wanting a smart, quiet horse with a solid foundation. Mustangs make excellent all-around horses when they're trained up right, from the beginning, as Coco has been trained. Keep an eye on this one; he's amazing!
COCO HAS BEEN ADOPTED AND IS OFF TO HIS FOREVER HOME!
**More youngsters are being trained in the months to come. Check back for new adoptable horses!**
