If you are looking for a horse that meets you at the gait, can't get enough of working with you and is athletic enough to succeed at all your crazy plans THIS is the horse for you! He actually knows which car is mine and whinny's as I drive in. The guilt I feel when he sees me grab the lesson horse instead of him is terrible!
Ky is 4 years old and ready to get started. He has been worked with and socialized since birth. He has always ALWAYS loved being around humans.... (read more) He used to see people on the other side of his 5 acer paddock and take off at a gallop just to say hello. (His mom hated it.) Although he has been worked with a tone, we have gone slow with anything that could stress his growing muscles and bones. He can currently be lunged, ground driven, tacked up, can safety stand tied, trailers well, stand nicely for the farrier and even move over to the mounting block to help you get on easily.
When he was three I did get on him and ride him (at a walk) around the arena with and without other horses just to get him used to the idea of the whole thing. I am confident that he is ready for the next steps with his new owner.
Here's the knitty-gritty!
Up to date with vaccines and coggins
Up to date with farrier
Up to date with dental (due this June)
He's never had any lameness issues
No vices
Stands 15.1 (but still growing)
Registered Knabstrupper (both parents are big cross-country jumpers. The mare excelled in dressage as well. His father is Knabstrupper, his mother is a Hanoverian.)
This horse would do best with a personal owner who wants to have wild adventures AND wants to spend lots of time together. Ky isn't an adrenaline junky, you don't have to jump the moon or swim the Nile to keep him entertained. But, he would do best with someone who enjoys spending time with their horse. In a few years I think he will be the horse that is ridden by the whole family (and that will make him really happy.
I do have lots of other pictures and videos. Feel free to message me for more info.
All pictures/videos have been taken before spring cleaning. His price will go up as his training continues. Professional photos/video's will be taken once the mud has cleared and his winter coat is gone.
