PEDIGREE (allbreedpedigree.com)

“W” is a three year old black gelding sporting no white. He is of good size, currently 15.1 and should make 15.2 if not better. He is smooth riding; no not gaited but the next best thing. He is bold and fearless in nature. When riding on the trail or in pasture he is pretty secure in mind and footing. I have never known him to try to run off, buck or rear. W loads in trailers and backs out quietly with no hassles, he takes deworming and vaccinations gracefully – no arguments. W will stand patiently tied for days on end with no questions asked and picks up all feet. I Have not used clippers on him so he is not clipper trained. No vices that I can think of. He goes in bosal or snaffle. He is not excitable and his nature is slow/mild mannered. If you want a fiery mount “W” is not it. He seldom argues but when he has had a good workout he may ask you when can he go home. He is not barn sour nor does not have a dependency on being with other horses. You can safely take him on the trail alone without his needing a fellow horsey pacifier.

“W” has never been to a trainer he was trained at home and worked since birth and has a good working foundation. Although, started early “W” has been ridden very lightly, just mainly walk, a little trotting and trail riding. W retains his lessons well. You can go without riding him for two months, then take him out tack him up and he will act like a seasoned dependable mount. “W” has had several people ride him, he is an easy one and one you can count on. If we are trail riding and I need and extra mount and have a rider that is not 100% “W” will work as he is not complicated, just honest and loyal.

"W" only knows kindness and patience but if he acts up he knows correction. He has never been stalled as he has been raised in the Flint Hills of Kansas all his life. He knows how to use his feet picking his way through gullies, creeks and ravines, he has done this since birth. Due to this his bone has developed into strong useful bone and his mind has developed in the same manner. He was raised in a herd of geldings, mares and foals and thus has learned his “horsey” social values the hard way.

He was named after President Bush, “W”. As a conversation piece he has had his photo autographed by the President of the United States. It reads to “W” from George W. I have the photo and took a photo of the President signing the photo. This has nothing to do with the horse it is just a neat conversation item; well, unless you’re a Democrat and would not want to own a horse by the name of “W”.

W is a leany beany in the photos; he is not an overfed young mount. He has been grown up slow which is healthy for bone he will fill out with time as he ages.

W has been on our for sale page for a while and somewhere along the line I decided I wanted to keep him because he was smooth riding and such a steady boy who will undoubtedly grow into an impressive black gelding. I have too many horses, so W is back on the for sale list, but I am in no rush to sell him. He is an excellent mount, a forever horse and must go to a good home.

Red is a really beautiful animal and very trusting in nature. He is the one that follows you all around and loves human companionship. He has an incredibly rich old Midwest pedigree and is 100% foundation. He will make someone a lovely mount someday as he is both athletic and beautiful; inside and out. Red’s mane and tail look like they may be turning flaxen, if so he will really be a beauty then. Watch for more photos and updates on Red as he matures.
