| Horse Description |
|
Shadow came to us via my best friend who is heading for
the Peace Corp. She originally came from out west and
below you will find information from the original owner on
how Shadow was trained. Since coming to NY, she was
used for Dressage. Shadow is special in that she has a
lot of great training behind her, but for beginners like us
who just want a great trail horse that is safe for my two
beginner rider daughters ages 10 and 12 - she's perfect.
Due to her training she would be a great prospect
for an intermediate rider but if you are a beginner she
may be what you are looking for too. We were timid of
riding and horses, and Shadow showed us that there are
ok horses, good horses and really great horses despite
your level of experience. In fact, to illustrate how good
she is, this winter we tied a toboggan to the saddle horn
and took the girls on mini-sleigh rides. Shadow didnt skip
a beat and I have pictures I can share of her doing this!
We also have a friend who went to Morrisville and Cornell
University to study equine science and education and she
tested Shadow for us. I am sure she would let you know
her thoughts if you are interested.
This is an email from the riginal owner to give you an idea
of her training:
"I will give you a little history of how I start my horses;
Shadow became one of the family when she was a
yearling and spent her first year learning to lead and play
in the pasture with my other young stock. I like to start
all my young prospects at the end of their 2yr old year in
the fall. As a 3 and 4 yr old I continue their arena training
and lots and lots of trail riding. By the time my western
horses are to the age of 5 yrs they should all be going in
a curb and running a nice reining pattern with stops,
spins, roll backs, and lead changes. (More of a ranch
horse pattern vs. today's competition reining) I like to
have a horse that is well rounded that I can barrel race,
work cattle on the ranch, take to a ranch horse
competition or just trail ride."
Lots more pictures availible upon request.
(not positive on the height)
