I am needing room so I can bring in another horse for training and have dropped the price on Apache. Height and weight are approximate.
Apache is a 2 1/2 yrold Appaloosa Colt. This young gelding loves people and the attention that they give him. I have started Apache under saddle through the Natural Horsemanship approach.
Here are some of Apache's accomplishments
February 8 I played the 7 Parelli games with Apache
February 13 Rode Apache bareback with halter
February 25 Apache jumped some barrels on command from the ground.
March 8 I rode Apache across a big creek which splashed us and the saddle!

April 26 Loaded Apache in the 2-horse straight load trailer
April 27 Rode Apache on barrel pattern, he is learning how to pickup and drop his leads, he is also learning leg yields
April 28 rode Apache around 6acres for 2laps. Then I had Apache trot/canter beside the hwy for about a mile or 2. He legyields much better today, I can use just one hand for the leg yields and he's starting to learn how to do a little spin.
April 28 Rode Apache again, trailered him to the nearby arena and practised running barrels with him, he did great.
April 30 Rode Apache, cantered for about 1-2 mile,trotted and walke back home. During the ride he crossed a 8-10"Inch deep creek, and splashed through a 15-20 'ft strech of water in the ditch beside the hwy. It rained hard yesterday so there's lots of water standing and filling creeks.

May 17th Rode Apache- Rode along highway again, through very tall weeds, pass cattle, crossed creek, barking dogs, he stayed calm while the other horse that I was on went a little nuts about a cat in the weeds.
I have also shown Apache both the barrel and pole bending patterns. I have roped a log and had Apache drag it around the field. He is also learning to neck rein. I have more pictures I can email to you of Apache. Please feel free to call or e-mail for more information or current update on his progress! ONLY THE APPALOOSA IN THIS VIDEO IS FOR SALE!!
