This Fox Trotter is a little green yet. The owner was very honest and told me it took 10 mins to get him in a trailer. He has never been tied all night camping. Those are the things I want to avoid. Pretty horse and just the right size. Not a bad price.

Gaited horses are very popular. I am glad you are enjoying yours. :)

I see that he’s only had 30 days training so far.Seems to be doing pretty well for only a month’s work on him,and the price is most definitely right.Sounds like he’s really trying,you might want to take him on as a project.We’ve got a new horse coming in a week or two,and she’s gonna be a project but I’ve got great hopes for her.She’s a 4 year old foundation quarter mare that was used as a surrogates mother for an in-vitro fertilization baby,an Arab.The man who bought the breeding paid 1000 bucks deposit on the mare and had the option of keeping her or sending her back to Arizona and getting his deposit back.He really likes the mare but he’s not into quarter horses,just Arabs.He asked me if I’d want her and I asked him how much he wanted for her-he said just take her,I know you will give her a good home.She’s real quiet and easy to handle on the ground,but it’s apparent that she’s never been ridden.We saddled her up and rode her around his arena and she didn;t buck or act up at all,so it’s off to our trainer for 90 days to get her started.
