Additional Comments

I bought Jenny as a 6 year-old back in 2015, and I've owned her every since, so she is now 14 years old. She has worked on my farm taking beginners, hefties, youngsters too young to ride on their own doubling with a guide, and kids as young as 6 and up riding on their own out on our trails. She is sweet and unflappable out on the trails. Nothing phases her - not birds, deer, dogs, 4-wheelers, tractors, traffic, water, mud, bridges, two neighboring firing ranges - nothing....

Jenny is perfect for you if you are just learning to ride or if you've lost your confidence due to a bad experience or you need a larger horse who can carry riders up to 350 lbs. They don't get any easier to ride than Jenny. The only reason I'm not listing her for $8K - $9K is because she has a crack in her left hoof due to an old injury to her coronary band. She had it when I bought her, and she sells with it. Despite that, she is sound at the walk, trot, and canter. Jenny is currently shod on all four feet. Like all of our horses, she is normally shod on the front and trimmed on the back, but our trails are at their worst this time of year due to the torrential summer thunderstorms, so many of our horses are now shod on all four to protect their hooves from the plentiful Quartz rock on my farm.

Jenny has the most magnificent mane and great confirmation with a nice top line. She loads and unloads in a matter of seconds - not hours. She's easy to catch, bathe, and spray for flies. She will stand at the hitching rail for hours without pawing or chewing on wood.

For anyone buying their first horse, we also sell new and used saddles, bridles, saddle pads, as well as new winter blankets, halters, lead ropes, and horn bags. The big advantage to buying these items when you buy the horse is that we will fit everything for you, so it takes the guess work out of sizing and fitting of saddles, bridles, and winter blankets. Then you can feel confident that the horse will perform the same at home as it did at our farm.
