"Mandy is a beautiful 12 year old, 14.3H mare. A great trail horse!! She is SO VERY BROKE!!!! Unbelievably quiet, calm, w/ still-like movements!!! Very Smooth Ride!!!

Due to light, camera setting, photos do not do her justice!! She is darker and absolutely Beautiful!!!!!!

 

Mandy would be wonderful for someone who loves to trail ride on long rides......she has years of experience doing this including camping trips!!! Mandy is amazing in the way that she steps very cautiously when going downhill,or across rough ditches.

She is very smart.....and very patient.....an absolute lady! Just so very sweet and so very loving!!!

We live on one of the busiest 4-lane highways and these horses get tested in every way every day. We have a rental park over the hill......with lots of barking loose dogs.....motorcycles.....and a couple of 4-wheelers.....children playing...and nothing bothers Mandy!!!

And! We also do the tarps, umbrellas, - a long list of training for spookiness!!

Mandy stops on voice command......"stands and waits"...she stands while mounting and waits patiently. She is VERY calm, quiet, with still like movements all the time.

Mandy is a baby doll to catch....stands patiently in cross ties...She is a true pleasure when clipping, shoeing, and loading.

Mandy has two great and unusual gifts! Throw the reins over her neck and she will load herself on the trailer!! She can also find her way back to the trailer on a trail ride - "when you cannot"! (:

She will go in her faster gait and come right back down to her slooow motion walk! She never pulls on the bit to go faster........she listens, and she obeys! Mandy is going to make some family a wonderful trail horse as well as - a lifetime family friend!!

We do everything we possibly can do to find out if a horse has a problem,......to find out "before" they leave to go to their new home!! Mandy does have a playful habit of laying her ears back in the stall...but there is absolutely no aggression behind it. She is funny, playful, and so very beautiful! And it's a celebration every time we feed!!
