Zara

Zara is an 8 year old grade grulla mare standing 14 hands, cute little build with a sweet demeanor. Easy keeper, no maintenance and ready for her new person/family. A grandma bought her for herself and grandkids, the joys of having a new horse slowly faded and Zara began to sit. Since coming to us, she’s gone through a short refresher and has been a lot of fun. Walk, trot and canters. Knows her leads, decent neck-rein and moves off leg. Zara is not a complete deadhead and when you ask, you will receive. I did notice that she would like to go into a canter if allowed right away, assuming the grandkids thought cantering was more fun but not taking off by any means. We’ve been focusing on controlled trotting with less cantering. That’s really the only thing I can say “bad” since I started riding her. Zara seems to know poles and barrels or at-least enjoys it enough to play around, would be an excellent little gymkhana / playday horse! As far as trail riding, Zara will go out alone but definitely more content with having a buddy or others with her. Walks out nicely, seems happy as she looks around at the sites. If she does spook it’s subtle and comes back too. Has good ground manners, stands tied , lunges easy and loads into the trailer. Super cute mare, absolutely loves affectionate and gives kisses. Ideally an intermediate rider would be best suited for Zara as again, she isn’t a complete dead head. However she is safe and has not offered any funny business. They did mention if she had a good amount of time off, they would lunge her some prior to getting on. Zara is a great age to continue to learn more and make someone a nice all around mare. Current on feet (trimmed), teeth, shots and deworming.
