Halston is a true gentleman and gem of a stallion. He has a cuddly "teddy bear" personality and is kind and generous. He is revised for breeding with both ANCCE and IALHA but would also make a perfect gelding. He is easy to handle around other horses, polite and friendly, and loves to go out on the trail! He is comfortable going both english and western, is not fussy about the type of bit he wears, and is experienced in a hackamore. He has comfortable gaits and a very willing attitude....
