In training, she
rides smoothly whether

being ridden bareback.
She is quiet and gentle
and gives rides to
children. My 8 yr old
rides her bareback in
the round pen with just
a halter and she listens
well to him. With her
demeanor, beauty and

could go far in any
discipline.

Other comments:
She is a very loving
horse and tries hard to
please. We work on doing
a lot of bomb proofing
games such as playing
catch with stuffed
animals while riding;
stuffed animals and blow
up balls do not phase
her. We have even tied
two stuffed animals
together and draped them
over her shoulder, and
have allowed the stuffed
animals to drag around
her feet without any
inclination that she may
spook. She does this
both with and without a
rider.
