Dobbin is 15 years old (foaled Dec 1993) and 16.2 hh. He is sired by a registered Selle Francias named Orley who was a Grand Prix dressage horse and his dam was an OTTB. He was owned and broken by Rolex competitor Sara Mittlieder at the beginning of his career, and is now owned by one of our working students. He has competition experience all over the country--this is truly a been there, done that kind of guy! He is a very brave, bold cross country horse who finds all novice cross country questions easy! His owner has owned him for three years, in which time they've never come out of a competition without a ribbon. Dobbin also has experience in Pony Club, with his young rider owner riding him for her tradition and her dressage C-3 ratings, where they passed both. He has been to a few dressage schooling shows at training and first level and always scored in the mid to high 60s. Dobbin is a very experienced Novice level event horse who is a solid citizen on the flat, easily scoring at the top of his dressage division with great regularity. He has a terrific canter and his trot is VERY easy to sit, making him a terrific candidate for the rider who wants to event at the lower levels and be very competitive. Could also be terrific in pure dressage. His rider/owner is madly in love with him, but has upper level aspirations, and is looking to find him an outstanding home where he will be well loved and can teach the next generation. Loving home a must--he will be hard for the owner to part with.
