  There are horses that I just put in the category of truly solid citizens that I would put anyone on and know they will be safe and have fun. I think this horse could do anything and everything. He is another that my riders just rave about. He has all the fancy buttons- sliding stop, spins, side pass and so much more. English, western, trails and he taken to jumping like has been doing it forever. I just think some horses are certified good boy types and this is one of them.

Pint- 4yr (need to verify as he may be slightly younger) 16 draft cross gelding that is absolutely stunning and just insanely well started. Sometimes the scrolling through facebook catches me stopping on a horse that I must go watch and that was the case with Pint. Sure he looked cool but also you could just tell he had all the foundation that makes a good horse good!

Pint was ranch broke and all the work was done so nicely. This horse is just plain broke. He stays in where you put him. Such a good shape in the body. Excellent in the balance. Light, soft and just sits there. That canter...my god that canter. I mean look I am sure he has only been ridden western but when I watched his videos I saw the canter and thought yes that horse will be great english and he will have a super jump. I realize he has some knee action at the trot but that canter....

I am sure he had never seen a jump but we asked him to just pop around a bit and he was like sure cool this sounds fun. I personally just love watching the wheels turn. Seeing horses introduced to new concepts tells me so much about how they will be with everything to come. Do they just think about it and sort it out? In his case he just figure it out so fast and we looking for more but he is just settling in and that was enough for today.

He popped around all the fillers in the ring like he had been doing it forever. Popping off lead changes, knees up as cute as can be and just happy as they come. Then he went to the field today where he popped around all the xc jumps just as quietly as you could ask a horse to do. Then Brooke wanted to test if he would carry the flag which he was like um duh of course I can/will do that. The flag can be scary but Pint honestly is just not one that is very fazed by anything I have seen yet.

He is also one of those horse you meet and just think he is wise beyond his years. He is so so quiet in the barn you almost forget that he is there. He doesn't put a foot wrong with anything. When it is time to work, well he shows up and he will work all day long. There is no lack of work ethic on this one. He is athletic and built to do a job. You get the draft brain with whatever in the world he could be crossed with that added some athletic ability/stamina.

Pint is sound. Excellent feet. No vices. No issues. Just does all the things. I mean this horse is beyond cool. I don't think you find many like this on the market. He wasn't cheap to buy but honestly he was worth it and anything of his caliber is super hard to find. People ask me all the time where I find my horses and the answer is all over! I have no qualms buying something that just speaks to me as one that will fit into our world. I think he will go western, do ranch work, trails, hunt, event, dressage and anything in between. Not to mention he is gorgeous and the sweetest creature you will meet.
