13 y/o black Morgan/X mare - Trail/Cowboy Challenge Project
Description
14hh 13y/o Morgan/X mare "TAXI" to be sold into capable and loving hands.
Suitable for confident experienced/coached youth or light adult
Taxi is currently running in a commercial herd of 29 and we are unfortunately unable to give her the time and dedication she deserves.
A very smart mare, curious and quick thinker, Taxi will perform best as a 1-person horse, as she is very observant and needs time to warm up to "her" person. She does not take well to overly harsh or unfair treatment, but will also require someone with the experience to convince her of their leadership skills. Once she trusts you, she will be ready and willing to take on the world with you. Due to changes in business, Taxi has not been ridden in a little over a year. Before that, she was mainly a wrangler horse. She rides nicely if you can handle her energy and personality which is best suited to a confident rider.
Taxi went through a time of being handled rather harshly which is why she initially has some "stranger danger", but once she's gotten to know you, is well behaved. She could make an amazing horse for an experienced rider with ambitions in extensive/back country trail riding (she has that Morgan pep in her step) or Cowboy Challenge - she is curious and learns fast!
Someone having previous experience with starting/restarting horses or an intermediate rider working with a trainer could find a diamond in the rough with this one.
Taxi moves peacefully in our herd of 29, being confident around other horses but not excessively pushy.
Good with her feet (once she trusts you). UTD on farrier, vaccines and dewormer.
Can arrange for transport on Vancouver Island, including ports ON Vancouver Island.
Not desperate to sell - if she doesn't find the right home, we will keep her over winter as a project.
