Talk about rare! Meet Winona! She is a Walkaloosa!
Winona is the best 4-year-old you can throw a leg over. She has been my personal horse for quite some time now. I have ridden her all over, from day rides, road rides, camping trips, to city life. She is broke to dogs, wildlife, heavy traffic, loud noises, and chaotic environments. I have ridden her double with my 8-year-old son. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body. She is phenomenal on the ground and under saddle.... (read more) She has been ridden by beginners and handled it perfectly. Winona is everyone’s pick, including my own. Winona will walk up to you in the pasture without grain or treats. She will put her head in the halter for you. She is wonderful for a bath- she loves water! She stands tied, very quietly, without pawing or fidgeting. She loves to be groomed and petted on. She will let small children groom/love on her. Her ground manners are perfect. Small children can lead her around- she respects our space. Winona has a beautiful gait. She is a natural. Smooth and easy to ride. She will walk all day long on a relaxed rein, or gait the trails and road if asked. She has an amazing canter- it is a “rocking chair” canter. She was trained to do this and will transition into a canter from a walk or a gait.
She neck reins. You can sit back and ride her one-handed through town or on the trails.
Winona rides in a group or alone. She is fine with leading, riding middle, or falling behind. She rides alone without hesitation. I go out riding a lot by myself, and she is confident with it. She is a pleaser and will do anything you ask of her. This girl has had a lot of training and quality time. She packs any-size saddlebags, carries a flag, will drag a tarp, shoot a gun off her, and is great with fireworks.
Out on the trails, she crosses water, ditches/ravines, and up-and-down challenging terrain with ease.
Winona is a special girl that deserves a special home. She loves our adventures and does everything a 10-year-old horse would do. She stands great for the farrier and has shoes on all the way around. She is great for the vet. She is vaccinated, teeth done, wormed, and coggins.
She loads in any trailer. She backs out on command. She is good with or without a ramp.

Winona knows a few tricks and will easily learn more. She lies down to mount. She will also side-pass for an easy mount. She will side-pass to a rock, log, truck bed, trailer, fence, and, of course, a mounting block to make mounting easy. Winona has been ridden throughout Tennessee and Missouri. She has all of the experience and exposure she could have. She is ready for the trails with her forever home. Come check Winona out. You can search the country over and not find another girl like my Winona.
