im selling my horse, or trading..
i just dont think arena work is working out for him, it hurts him still after his chiro, he is fine at walk/trot but alot of cantering seems to bug him especially in the arena doing circles..
trail riding hes fine he still has energy and will run for you
but i dont have the money to keep giving him chiro all the time..
and i think he just likes trails better anyways..
he could be suitable for a beginner but i couldnt sell him as one,
as sometimes without regular riding he gets jiggy and really hyper around other horses, and wants to race, plus he is spooky around mostly people related things.
he trailers ok, ties, grooms, stands to be tacked and mounted, no bite or kick, trims, deworms, lunges, very easy to catch, very friendly, nice conformation, amazing personality, easy keeper, goes english, and western and bareback, LOVES the trails will go through or over almost anything
he was abused so he takes awhile to trust but i can do almost anything with him,
i can bounce a ball off him, walk under him, cars do not scare him at all, i have ridden down the highway,
with logging trucks, rvs, trailers, tarps, motorbikes (he is a little spooky around pedal bikes) you name it he doesnt bat an eye, i even rode across a bridge, he loves swimming
i just dont want him to be hurting and i dont want him doing something he doesnt enjoy....
id be willing to trade for a green horse maybe, as long as theres no buck/rear/bolt/etc..and as long as they can do w/t/c
i just dont have the time to totally start a horse or fix any problems like bucking..
as long as they are physically and mentally able to show, even if they havent been trained for it yet, then id be willing to come see
this is an amazing horse, just needs the care i cant give him...
im asking $300 for him. i love this horse soo much he just needs a good home . REDUCED TO $100

How old is he?
How long have you had him?
What was going on in his past (you said it took you awhile to gain his trust)?
Where is he staying right now? (your house, boarding facility, etc...)
Anything major/minor flaws?
Does he get along with other horses?
Any pics?

I'm looking to buy a horse, but I would be taking them down to Vancouver in the spring time. Would he be okay in the trailer for that long?

but hes about 13, i was told 9 but he isnt.
ive had hm a year
he was abused pretty badly, his previous owners had him since he was born.
hes at gamache a boarding place in quesnel
he doenst really have any bad things,
good feet, good teeth, easy keeper, healthy, amazing personality doesnt kick or bite, easy to catch, tack up everything
but sometimes if he doesnt get ridden regularly he might buck if you try cantering
and if you ride with alot of other horses he tends to want to be in the front and stay in the front. he was raced and gymkhanad before so he is also kind of "gated"
he gets along good with other horses but tends to be the boss but when riding he is totally fine
there are picutres under the pictures section just look for anything horse related posted by me
he trailers good we had one little accident but that was cause the little 2 horse had a butt bar and that scared him when it pushed against him , but in bigger trailers he loads and trailers amazing.
on trails he will go through alost anything except little puddles he will go around usually he is just wierd lol but loves swimming
but its not a definate im selling him ill see. it depends on if i find a horse right away too cause if i dont i wont sell him or else i might lose my spot at gamache...
but i dono id be soo picky at where he goes i dont ebver want him going to a bad home

Are you selling or trading?? I would consider a trade if you were interested in princess, think about it and let me know. Not that I need another horse but...... it would keep you riding and give your horse some time off cause I don't ride much. Or if you decide to sell him or have someone interested, my mare is still for sale for 750. That is a crappy situation though I hope everything works out for you.

thank you i really appreciate the offer , i will keep you updated and its the hardest thing ive ever had to do.

im only asking $400 for him,
he would be so perfect for someone who wants to just trail ride every couple days or even once a week,
i just want him to go to a good home
