Registered chocolate Rocky Mountain mare that stands at 14.2 HH. Disposition: Rocks is a joy to be around, with a kind, willing attitude, and unflappable abilities. Chilled personality! She will come to you when called from the pasture and in your pocket kind of girl. Loves attention- treats-scratches!! In winter, she is a deep chocolate; in summer, here in Texas, she lightens up with beautiful dapple spots. Just simply gorgeous! Ground accolades: Ties up quietly to anything (trees/post/rails) plus ground ties for grooming (stands still while being groomed), loves baths! Saddles and bridles easily (lowers her head). Round pen: lunges with and without lead rope/flexes well/ desensitized to flags/balls/tarp/swinging rope in the air above her head/ balloons. Stands well for vets and farriers. She is barefoot with great feet, regularly trimmed. Trailers great-loading and calmly unloading. Riding: She is a fabulous trail horse—will cross water, various terrain, and will go slow and easily. She will ride into a lake, ride out alone or with other horses, and doesn’t mind leading or following. She has a wonderful, smooth 4-beat gait. She has an easy canter, will lead change, and is all very relaxed. She will side pass and open/close gates. She knows how to move over to a mounting block on cue and will mount from any object (picnic tables/logs/back of pick up/ side by side). She knows neck reins and moves off of leg pressure. She has no vices and is easy to handle in every way. She has been around cars and busy highways, will walk through Dairy Queen, and will wait patiently while the order is being processed. She can ride bareback as well. She will go up into a gazebo, walk on narrow sidewalks, up and down concrete steps, walk over any bridge (wide or narrow /long or short and elevated), and greet new people in parks, children, and animals. She is not bothered by bicycles, motorcycles, flags (riding with or going by them), exotic deer, zebras, charging dogs, farm equipment, loud trucks, etc.…. unflappable! Training: I originally purchased her from a Rocky Mountain breeder/trainer in Kentucky. After being with me for a while, I sent her to complete a two-month performance western training. After many months, I sent her to complete a tune-up with a gaited horse trainer who greatly improved her four-beat gait and softness to the harness. She is up to date with Coggins/shots. She is ready to hit the trails this beautiful fall time of year. She is an amazing mare that would easily be someone’s heart horse for years! She is the horse that everyone is looking for!
