Buck paint gelding
Description
Buck
Beefy thick big western boy
$5000
Paint draft cross
10 years old
15.3 hands
Easy keeper
Mild kissing spine started. No medication at this time. X-rays in photos June 2025.
Middle of the pack
Intermediate to experienced rider needed. No kids or beginners this is a working forward and light horse.
Trail ride, and beer broke
I use split reins on him. He neck reins ok
Last owner opened gates and side passed with him.
Pull his tail and he backs up! parelli trained? more buttons but I am not fancy so I could not tell you what he can all do.
He’s independent and alert. Amazing for wildlife watch.
Good with dog, cat, chickens and turkeys, and goats.
Not spooky at all. Chainsaw and side by side did not phase him at all.
Goes through puddles
Does not bite. Kick. Or bolt. He’s a good boy.
Up to date on
- shots
- Trimmings
- Floats
- sheath cleaning - he doesn’t get bothered by being touched anywhere
Buck came from Alberta originally I believe and was papered at that time. Last owner had him for about 5 years on a dude ranch trail riding daily and gathering cattle. They lost the papers. We never bothered getting them.
He didn’t have to leave the dude ranch for 5 years so I think that’s why he doesn’t care for trailers. (Or he was never trained to trailer and standing) You can get him and then have food in there for comfort
He trailers but usually paws during the travel.
He’s impatient and paws when tied. We started to work him again this month (June).
We have had him for 2 years. Have done over +150km in the trails and arena work.
He liked obstacle days in the covered arenas.
He likes anything that works his mind. He did not care for drill but the gals said we did pretty good for our first time
He loves trail rides and anything in the mountains. He regularly asked to go for rides at the gate.
Comes when called. Easy to catch.
Been great this year for trimming.
***X-rays last spring showed mild kissing spine. Vet wasn’t concerned and said he would only need pain meds if we were eventing hard or he was in pain. We only do trails mostly so this has not been an issue for us.
Had about 9 months off this year and got a little spoiled. Tried to crow hop for a couple minutes out of the yard. But then was ok once on the trail. Needs a good refresher.
During drill he got very excited to go around the cones so not sure if he has barrel experience as well?
Buck loves
- trail rides
- Snow
- Butt scratches
- Snacks
Dislikes
- trailers
- Standing still
$5000
I’m selling him cause he’s a little too tall for me. I prefer the shorter horses.
** Would be open to a trade **
Looking for a more chill shorter (14.3-15) qh. Kid/family husband horse
Around 10.
No grey or white horses.
We don’t go out as much as I was planning so would like a husband type of horse that would be good for kids in the future when the horse gets old. And doesn’t care to be in the yard while we have busy months.
