True All-Arounder: Western, English, Ranch, Games and C
<p>Kirby is a rancher’s dream come true. He is easy to ride, the same horse every time, consistent, reliable, dependable: a rock star.</p> <p>His level head carriage and natural collection, his beautiful, long, ground covering stride places him at the top of the hunter under saddle and ranch classes. </p> <p>With all the buttons, he can spin for reining classes and give you a stellar horsemanship pattern.</p> <p>But wait, he can game too: barrels, poles, he’s 2D and sometimes 1D here in Ontario. He spent last year at university in Texas gaming as a college rodeo horse. He can be hot at the gate, but settles down when led. Can he sort? Yup, he fits in fine with the cattle. And he likes going on a trail ride, overnight camping too.</p> <p>Despite being a kind, quiet, shy guy, his forward movement means he needs a more experienced beginner with a coach who plans to grow into him, or an intermediate rider.</p> <p>At 15’3, 11 years old, and a talented all-arounder, Kirby is sure to please his next owner, who wants to further their riding skills, haul to shows, and add some ribbons to their wall. </p> <p>Most recently, Kirby placed 1st in JR A English Pleasure, 4 th in JR A Horsemanship and 3 rd in Open Reining and at the Midwest Horsemanship Society in Clinton, Ontario, an upper level all-breed horse show.</p> <p>In pasture, he is fine with other geldings and mares or can be stalled. He bathes, ties, stands for farrier, has minimal maintenance and is up to date on vaccines, deworming, dental and farrier. Negative Coggins, Piroplasmosis and Health Certificate from April 29th, 2024 available.</p> <p>This summer, Kirby plans to continue showing as an all-arounder, explore reining cow horse and go camping. He is looking forward to meeting his new best-friend. If that is you, please get in touch, Kirby is ready to meet you.</p>
