Hez Got Starry Eyes aka 'Gus'

Price range:
$11000
Age:
11 years
Breed:
QH

Gus is a well-bred ladies man. He is a 14.3h, 2012 model and just coming into his own. He has done a little bit of everything. He is a true gentleman, loves the ladies and is a true sweetheart with kids. He has been to the mountains, packed and rode. He goes to brandings through the summer months, has roped on pasture and drug calves to the fire. He has packed unexperienced riders and kids around. He can gather and sort cows, turns on a dime and has done arena work. He is a thinker, will float over top of mud, goes through water but you will have to let him find his path, he doesn't agree to heavy hands and if you wish to hurry this gentle soul, he will hold a grudge. He can be hard to catch on bad days (send the kids out and he's the first one to walk up to you in the pasture) and he has pulled back while tied in the past. If he realizes he can't get loose he doesn't try twice and if you work him lots he won't try, but it is something to keep in mind, especially if you haven't used him in a while. Old habits seem to die slow. He has a cute head, a kind eye and a body that is built to last. He has a bit of an overbite, so regular dentistry is in his and your best interest. He hasn't taken a lame step in the last 6 years that we have owned him, he can be a bit a hard keeper in the winter (mind you our horses are out on pasture pawing most of the cold months), so you have every permission to spoil him. He is good with his feet, leads at the shoulder nicely and is in general a very mild mannered horse. He is second in command in our herd, doesn't look for trouble, but will stand his ground as well. While he loves to pony around kids, if you wake him up, you have 14.3h of solid power underneath you. He can rope, but it's not where he shines. Gathering cows, a sure footed trail horse is where he is truly at his best. He has also showed some potential in the arena if that is something you would like to do. He would love to be somebody's number 1.

CF Poco Joe Peppy

Price range:
$1800
Age:
4 years
Breed:
QH

Poco Joe Peppy aka Little Gunner is a 4 year old sorrel Quarter horse gelding. He has been saddled and is ready for a first ride. He is fast and he can turn. He has a curious mind and would love to be your friend, but hasn't figured out a 100% how yet. He can be hard to catch, but can always be caught. He has nice ground manners once caught, but will need some more work with his back feet. If he has had time off, he can be cinchy, but is usually done very quickly with any funky business. He is very athletic and correct. Could go any direction. He will need someone that is confident handling a lot of horse.
