Forrest
Nothing is more important than the feeling of safety and confidence when you are on and around your horse. Finding that in a young horse like this is once in a lifetime. Forrest is the partner you want when you need a relaxing trail ride after a stressful day. He is the kind that gently gives you confidence where you’d normally find yourself getting nervous. You can sit back, relax, and enjoy your ride.
Forrest is a 3.5 year old Gypsy x Percheron x Quarter Horse gelding standing 15.3 hands high. If there was one I’d love to keep in my barn forever, it’s him. He’s smooth and comfortable. He’s brave and sure footed. He is the same horse every ride, and he makes you feel safe in the saddle. Forrest is set up for success in any direction. Whether you plan to show, trail ride, hunt, or work on the ranch, Forrest has had the exposure and foundation to go and be successful everywhere and anywhere he may go! He will age like a fine wine. With his quiet nature and brave mind, you will not find a horse you’ll love riding more than Forrest.
In the ring, Forrest has three easy to sit gaits. He’s an easy ride that is just the right mix of whoa and go. Everywhere I’ve taken him he gets compliments. New indoors and new places are no problem for him. He rides off just like he’s at home. He is such a quiet and good minded young horse, he has the brain and foundation to be successful anywhere. He has been ridden both English and western, and would make a fantastic western dressage, dressage, or working equitation mount.
Outside of the arena, Forrest is the best of the best. Nothing phases him. He is sometimes the youngest horse out on a ride, and is still the one bravely leading horses 3 times his age through water, over bridges, and around obstacles. I’m not sure there’s another horse that has been quite as easygoing as he is when it comes to hitting the trails. Beginners, timid amateurs, and everyone in between has ridden and loved him. He is SAFE in every way. Let your reins loose and enjoy your ride.
In the barn, Forrest is polite and easy to get along with. He stands well for grooming, bathing, the vet, and farrier. He loves attention and very much enjoys bonding with his person. He’s the intuitive kind that quickly catches on to trick training and fun things like that. He’s happy living outside in a mixed herd, and gets along with all of his pasture mates.
Recent clean. vetting on file, Forrest is up to date with no vices or maintenance required- and ready to be your new partner.
