Captain 👨‍✈️ very fun and friendly gelding who’s eager to go to work needs a partner! He’s got loads of trail riding under his belt and will go anywhere you point him. Factly you can’t keep him off things. He’s got a very calm but fun personality, he’s the guy in the pasture to chase everyone with the feed bag then comes to help himself to your beer. He’s not the slightest bit spooky will hit the trails solo or in a group, he can be ponied or ponied off of, I use him for a lot of youngsters. He rides responsively in a halter and lead rope bareback or in a basic snaffle with English or western tack. We have found him to enjoy exploring trails above all else and welcomes obstacles. I bet he would also be happy to work a cow and he is good to drag items (Pine trees, dog kennels, tires), you can throw a rope off him but we are no ropers so I lightly add that to his resume. We have dabbled with a little jumping and I bet he would excel there as well at a low level. He’s got three lovely gaits that are easy to ride. Approximately 5yrs old he’s standing 14.3hh at the moment but I bet he’s got another spurt in him, nice bone to him, with great feet zero soundness issues and will most likely not require shoes (he is good about his feet but has never been shod due to not needing them). Loads, trailers, ties, and bathes with zero issues, just overall very easy to handle. Will meet you at the gate every time or come find you if you are trying to clean water buckets or repair fencing. This guy is missing his right eye and I would guess that happened pretty early on in his life as it in no way seems to be an issue. He’s not spooky on that side and we in no way have had to adapt anything for him. This horse has no behavior problems or trauma just a nice clean slate to train and loves being around people. I see the value in keeping him and he is a great DD for my beer drinking trail riding weekends but I think he has more to offer someone and would like to get out more, I am okay riding my old farts. Ideally a savvy teen or avid rider would thoroughly enjoy him, he is beginner safe and not a hot horse but he enjoys doing new things, and can get bored. I would like to find him a home where he gets out as much as possible and if the home allows him to move into the living room with the dog that would be right up his alley! $5000 obo. Hauling is available within a reasonable distance. Located in Dolan Springs, Az. Pm for additional information that is not in the ad or video of him moving.
