I have my new little guy...and I want to do something with him!
I really bought him as a pet and a friend for my little girl. But I thought it might be fun to try showing him, just for fun and something my family can do together. My kids (10,5,2) and my husband all love working with him. He has a fantastic personality, even though he is still a stallion(in his mid teens).
NOTHING fazes him. loud noises, weird looking things. I have been trying to get him to spook, to see how far I can push him.
It's funny...when I let him out of his pasture, he will follow me up the 3 steps and walk across the deck to my front door.And then jump off the deck when he is done staring in the front window. He has come into the house. He will march right across big blue tarps. He went right up my husbands flatbed car trailer on his own. I actually have to really keep an eye on him when I let him out to mow the front lawn! It seems he could really get himself in trouble.
But it also makes me wonder if he did obstacle courses........
I know nothing of his background. The lady I bought him from told me he had been shown years before. I have no idea if he is/was registered. So I assume I would only be able to go to open shows.
Is there any way of finding out if he was registered?
I was also wondering if his confirmation would even be acceptable to show.
Or I am just blinded by love
I will post some better pics of him when my husband gets home. I just love the pics of my little girl on him. She will be able to ride him until she's 10, I swear (she's tiny). She's almost 3 years old and 25lbs.
