Additional Comments

Achilles is a kind boy who loves his person and loves his herd. He makes friends quickly wherever he goes! If compared to a dog breed, Achilles is the Golden Retriever of horses! Through no fault of his own, we are needing to rehome him. We purchased him believing he was farther along in his training, but he is too green for our daughter. He lunges great, walks on a hot walker, accepts a saddle, and will give in to the bit. He is great with groundwork, including walking/trotting/cantering over poles, across bridges, over tarps, and around cones.... (read more) He is good to bathe, brush, and clip. He is sensitive about his ears and doesn't like them touched. We would like to see him go to a home where someone will either give him the time and attention he needs to become a safe horse under saddle, or who will accept him for who he is and love on him unconditionally as a companion, therapy horse, or endurance horse prospect. He is super kind and would probably be a great horse to help with weanlings. Due to his love for other horses, we would would ideally like to see him go to a home with at least one other horse so he has a friend.
