From navigating the busy streets of downtown to handling long miles in rugged mountain terrain, Cheese crosses bridges, water, tunnels, and brushes off commotion from traffic, strollers, dogs, or bikes without hesitation. He thrives in chaotic environments and makes even the wildest setting feel calm and rideable. Under saddle, Cheese is a blast to ride. He’s athletic, soft, and extremely responsive, Cheese is a very sensitive horse with a lot of go and forward motion in all gaits- He offers a smooth walk, a collected jog, and both an extended trot and canter. His stop is solid, rollback crisp, and he’s working on developing a nice spin. He’s the type you can take out with confidence .— he knows his job and enjoys it. He’s also been exposed to all kinds of obstacles and tasks: flags, tarps, dragging logs and barrels, and everything in between. Whether you’re wanting a handy ranch partner, a relaxed trail horse, or just a broke, sweet gelding with a ton of heart and a splash of humor — Cheese fits the bill. Watch his video and meet this one-of-a-kind guy in person — he’s every bit as fun as he sounds. For more information, contact [contact info removed].
