Levels of Experience for Riders
- Beginner – A beginner rider is still gaining confidence in the saddle. Beginner riders are developing a balanced seat and mastering basic commands (such as moving forward from the leg, steering, halting, and backing up). The beginner rider is learning to tack, mount, and ride independently.
- Intermediate – An intermediate rider has confidence riding well-schooled horses. Intermediate riders are developing an independent seat and can control their horse in unfamiliar circumstances (such as in the field, on the trail, or at a horse show). The intermediate rider can tack, mount, and ride independently – correcting minor inappropriate behaviors (such as walking off from the mounting block, kicking out in upward transitions, and stopping at the entry gate).
- Advanced – An advanced rider is an experienced rider with confidence training young or green horses. Advanced riders rely on groundwork training and an independent seat to guide horses in engaging in correct and effective movement, overcoming new obstacles, and correcting inappropriate behaviors (such as bolting, bucking, or spooking).
Levels of Horse Handler Experience
- Beginner – A beginner handler is still gaining confidence working with and around horses. Beginner handlers have basic training in leading and grooming well-behaved horses.
- Intermediate – An intermediate handler is confident in working with and around horses. Intermediate handlers have experience in leading and grooming horses and can correct minor inappropriate behaviors (such as pulling to stop and graze, refusal to pick up feet for cleaning, or spooking at shiny objects).
- Advanced – An advanced handler is an expert in working with and around horses. Advanced handlers have experience training young or inexperienced horses in proper ground manners, including overcoming problematic behaviors (such as bolting, rearing, biting, or spooking).
MAY aka “JIMBOS GIRL”
- Gender – Female
- Breed – Thoroughbred Horse
- Color – Dark Bay
- DOB – 2012
- Category – Complete Restart
May is an OTTB who is an EMP survivor. She is very overreactive to people, noises and outside stimuli. May would need someone who can be patient with her and start from the ground up. She has come around to being pet on the head and neck.
PRINCESS aka “Polynesian Princess”
- Gender – Female
- Breed – Thoroughbred Horse
- Color – Sorrel
- DOB – 2009
- Category – Project Horse
Princess is on OTTB who has a lot of spunk! She is not very fond of being haltered but she does love head and neck scratches. She would need an adopter that has a vast knowledge for OTTB behavior and quirks.
SUZY
- Gender – Female
- Breed – Grade
- Color – Black
- DOB – 2014
- Category – TBD
Suzy was rescued from the Camp County seizure. She has a divot in her nose which does not bother her but you can hear some raspiness when she breathes heavily. She has recently become very friendly and wants to be taken out and loved on. She currently shares a paddock with two other mares, previously with geldings, and has done great with both. She halters easy but is a little timid while walking. She is great for the farrier and while being vaccinated & microchipped. She has not been evaluated for under saddle experience but is next on my list.
If you think Suzy would be a good fit for you and would like to meet her message please CONTACT US!
MARLEE
- Breed – Quarter Horse – Grade
- Color – Chocolate Palomino
- DOB – 2004
- Category – Single Stall – Experience in blind horses
Marlee is one of our blind horses who would need to have a stall all to herself with permanent fixtures to keep her from bumping into and hurting herself. She is very shy to people and has an uneasy reaction to loud and unfamiliar noises. She would need an adopter who is willing to love and care for her and her condition. Marlee has been saddled and ridden, but needs an experienced rider.
VIGOR
- Gender – Female
- Breed – Registered Tennessee Walker
- Color – Flea Bitten
- DOB – 2005
- Category – Single Stall – Broke to ride
Vigor is blind so she would need a single stall with permanent fixtures so she won’t bump into or hurt herself. She is a very sweet, kind and loving horse who loves to be pet and will acknowledge sounds. She will need an adopter that is willing to cater to the needs of a blind horse as well as shower her with affection. Vigor is broke to ride with an experienced rider.
SALLY
- Gender – Mare
- Breed – Mustang
- Color – Gray with blue freckles
- DOB – 1999
- Category – Under Evaluation
BLM branded 21 yo mustang mare saved from auction in early September. She’s an Appy mustang with the prettiest blue freckles. She was a bit thin when she arrived but has had no problem filling back in. We have her up to date on all medical including her dental. She surprisingly has really great teeth for her age. We don’t have any medical concerns over Sally so we are introducing light work to see what she knows. She is a bit hard to get your hands on but once you do she really melts for the attention. We will never know why she was taken to auction but we will love her through whatever happened.
