Temperament: Anna Marie is a smart horse.  She is nervous but not dangerously so.  She calms down quickly once she gets to know you.

Physical problems / health issues: She has anhydrosis, an inability to sweat.  This condition can be controlled with meds.

Interaction with horses: She is good with other horses but spends a lot of her time hanging out by herself in the shade where the temperature is more comfortable for her.    

Interaction with people: She can get nervous easily with people she does not know.  She calms down if you are calm and don’t rush at her. 

History:

Training / abilities: Anna Marie is a very ridable horse.  She has a beautiful extended trot and is very responsive to reining.  She backs up willingly and stops well.  She cannot be worked really hard because of the anhydrosis. 

Experience level required to work with this horse:  Intermediate to experienced.

Has this horse ever:  Bucked? No Reared? No Kicked? No Bitten? No Other?

Ground handling: Catch? Yes Lead? Yes Tie? Yes Trailer? Yes Clip? Unknown Trim Feet? Yes Bathe? Yes, loves it since it cools her down.  She will seek out someone with a hose if it is hot and she needs to be cooled off.

Special needs: Her anhydrosis is controlled by adding a supplement to her food daily.  If a water source is available, she will seek it out when she gets too hot. 

Other comments:  Anna Marie is a big, strong, beautiful horse.  She is a wonderful riding horse and would be a willing partner for someone who wants a pretty trail horse or one to ride lightly in an arena.  She would be a great horse for a young girl or lady who wants an awesome horse for pleasure riding.  Our test rider compared her to a Cadillac.
