Loving Family Trail Horse

W2 Horses is proud to offer Kings Redberry Chex! A registered, 4.5-year-old AQHA gelding affectionately known as Rudy or Roo. 😍 Rudy is absolutely gorgeous with the biggest personality and most loving heart. Rudy is exceptionally special in every way, and his training and experience level make him the total package! His rich golden color, beautiful dapples, long white mane, and ground-dragging tail are just a bonus! We purchased Rudy when he was just a yearling, and for the last 3.5 years, we have loved teaching him everything he knows, from the basics to advanced training in the saddle, tricks, and more. From the start, Rudy has always had a gentle, easy-going, willing demeanor. Through every phase of the training process, he has been eager to learn with a great attitude and is always a pleasure to be around. Rudy has been trained slowly and correctly, learning all the basics first. He knows how to lunge freely or on a line, change directions, and come to you by simply reading your body language. He will follow you around slowly and respectfully, back up, and side pass to you on the ground without ever touching him. In the saddle, Rudy has spent abundant time learning flexion, moving off your legs, yielding his hindquarters, and picking up his shoulders. Rudy is always respectful and soft with lots of feel on the ground and in the saddle. Rudy has a fancy way of going, a lovely soft trot, and will lope both leads on cue with simple, easy transitions. Rudy has an excellent handle, neck reins, side passes, responds to leg cues, has a good stop, nice proper turnaround, and backs with ease. To add to Rudy’s solid foundation, he has years of experience on the trails and ranch work. Rudy is a pleasure to ride. He is honest, quiet, and solid on the trails. He is confident in rough terrain, sure-footed, and will go wherever you point him. Rudy is safe and confident to ride out alone and is happy leading a group or quietly following along in the back. We have spent an abundant amount of time desensitizing Rudy to everything you can think of. From the beginning, nothing has phased Roo as he has willingly accepted everything we have thrown in his direction. He is excellent with traffic, machinery, gunfire, bullwhips, wildlife, bicycles, crossing water, carrying the flag, and riding bareback. He is great with crazy dogs jumping all over him and will even let them ride in the saddle with you. Rudy is so good; we have even shot large fireworks from his back! Rudy has also been started in cowboy mounted shooting! He does not mind the loud gunfire or balloons popping in his face. He navigates the obstacles like a pro and has even done well picking up some speed. Rudy is also very handy to have on the ranch with lots of experience checking, gathering, and sorting cattle. We have used him to pasture rope and doctor yearlings.... KEEP READING ON MYHORSECONNECTION.COM or call for more info! 615-734-9885
