Contessa is absolutely everything you could ever want wrapped up in one beautiful package! She is the definition of class, athleticism, reliability, and a competent all-around horse. She has been easy to teach anything and everything and retains it all, always approaching new tasks happily. Ride or drive, this mare does it all! She is an absolute professional in driving (single or double). She was the go-to for driving the Amishman’s wife in town. She is absolutely bombproof on the trail courses. She will put you in the money if you are looking for a trail competition horse. She is also so athletic in the jumping side of life, with room to grow. She loves hacking out on the cross-country course and is equally impressive in the arena on jump courses. She is ready to show. Contessa is simple to ride with no bad behavior or vices. You can put anyone on this mare with confidence. She has excellent scope and unmatched hind-end action. She is a forward and brave horse when going around the jump courses. She is the ultimate fox-hunting horse with her boldness, stamina, and class. She also enjoys helping us gather the cattle on the ranch. She would be excellent for a beginner sorter to learn on or enjoy some beginner sortings. She can sit as long as you like, and you can step to her with confidence. She will be the same horse every ride. She would excel in Doma Vaquero or some western dressage. She would be amazing in the eventing world, too. She is young with an exceptional mind, ready to become your dream horse in any discipline you want, as she has experience all around!
We are very proud to offer such a fine horse. There is no maintenance, lameness, or bad behavior with this gal. Loads and unloads as they all should. Great for the farrier with a size one shoe. Contessa is gentle, sweet, and in your pocket. Great to tack and untack. Gets along with other animals well. She’s truly one in a million. Give us a call or text; voicemail does not work.
We look forward to meeting everyone.
*Payment is expected by noon on the next business day via wire transfer. Delivery can be arranged across the United States or internationally. Thank you in advance from TotonkaTrailEquine.

About Laporte, CO
The town was first settled by French-Canadian fur trappers and mountain men. It was the gateway to all the mountainous region lying north of the South Platte River and extending from the Plains to the Continental Divide. The trappers built cabins here along the Cache la Poudre River as early as 1828, making it the first white settlement in Larimer County. According to legend, a group of fur traders had earlier stashed supplies (including gunpowder) in a cache along the river near Laporte, and that is how the river got its name. It became the home of Antoine Janis in 1844, who is often noted as the first permanent white settler north of the Arkansas River.
