The Easy Day

Uncomplicated and content. Not trying to impress anyone, and that's exactly the appeal. Won't light up the arena, but won't ruin your Tuesday either. Consistent, low-key, and genuinely pleasant to be around - the horse that makes the hobby sustainable.

About this horse

Western dressage and all-around type gelding with beginner lesson experience, this 18-year-old chestnut has been used to teach riders of all ages and previously worked in 4H and OHSET. He is described as quiet and more "whoa than go," with easy gaits, a notably smooth lope or canter, and training that includes a good stop, simple transitions, sidepasses, forehand and haunch turns, and lead changes. He is also represented as trail suitable, non-spooky, and comfortable with routine handling such as loading and farrier work. Management disclosures include soft feet requiring shoes, prior hind abscesses before being shod, ongoing joint supplementation, and continued weight gain after rehabilitation from an underweight condition.
