appaloosa gelding UTD on all shots and deworming, sweet boy. Was in foster care until May 2009, foster Mom's notes: 15 hands. He is very very good with all other horses I have had. He is not strong headed at all with the different horses here and does have a playful nature , even with the top quarter horse. He is very very gentle. I think he would be great in this role but I am somewhat biased. If he is going to be ridden he definitely needs a bit more time with a patient teacher. Depending on the age of a child, and his/hers riding abilities. Since he lost the total vision in his right eye he has become a bit cinchy, not knowing what is "all around him". We have ridden him on trails last year, but the tacking up is his biggest challenge
