Fabio earned his name with his drop dead gorgeous looks and his thick blonde mane and tail. Barefoot with big hardy hooves and sound over any terrain. Bone and conformation to die for. He is stocky and fills up leg.
Fabio rides like a sport horse.... (read more) He has ALL the buttons. He moves off of leg and seat pressure, listens to every aid you give him and goes wherever you point his nose. He has the SMOOTHEST gaits I have ever ridden. A trot you can sit all day long, and the most comfortable canter you can dream of. He absolutely loves working. Ride him in the ring and on the trails. This horse is game for everything. He is the most athletic haflinger I’ve ever had. He is not a kick ride, push along horse. He loves to work and wants to please. He has ZERO stop to a fence, log, obstacle, this horse LOVES to jump and could take someone really far in the jumpers, eventers or fox hunting world. He has his lead changes (could use a little more polishing on them but they are there) and is super forgiving over fences. You can adjust him back in every gait or open him up and he’s right there with you the entire time. Always the same horse on or off property. He’s super sharp in western tack and collects up into the cutest jog. Goes right though water with no hesitation. He will blaze the trails with you all day long. He is not a small child’s pony that wants to plop along, I’d love to see him go to someone who is going to ride him to his full potential and use his athleticism.. If I wanted to compete in hunter paces/fox hunts/jumper ring/eventing etc I’d never let this one go! M
Fabio is a perfect gentleman for the farrier and vet. He stands straight tied or on the crossties, absolutely loves to be groomed and dolled up. Has gotten many baths and tolerated me spending way too much time shampooing and conditioning his perfect hair for over an hour. Fabio is a super star on the trailer, I load him up completely by myself and he is a gem. Easy keeper, fat off of air, gets along with everyone in turnout. He will sell UTD on everything!
