Coyote has more than enough between the
ears, enough to provide an always
evolving equine relationship. He's
smart and brave and willing to do or try
anything as long as he knows his rider
is with him. I believe he would perform
well as a long-distance trail riding
horse, due to his smooth job and sharp
mind. Experienced with cattle, deer,
cars and farm machinery, highway
traffic, busy intersections, parades,
local hunter/jumper circuit shows,
indoor and outdoor stadium jumping,
cross-country obstacles.
He loads and
travels quietly and ties to post or
picket. Trail ridden long distances on
pavement and gravel, rocky ground of
varied elevation. Goes through water.
Neck reins and also steers with direct
("plow") rein in Hunter Undersaddle,
Dressage, and JUmpers up to 2'3".
Pinned in first shows over fences.
Primarily ridden Western out on trail,
and is truly neck reined trained. He
moves off your leg, side-passes, and
bends. He is currently ridden and used
as part of a youth lesson and riding
program.
No beginners here. Rider
must understand the "mule mentality" and
met them halfway. You do your part, he
does his. Light to the aids, rider
needs a controlled leg and hand. Leave
leather halter on. Catch with grain.
"Coyote" is super smart, easy to handle,
lead, tie, groom, tack. In addition to
his correct and stocky build, he has
lots of sense and is easy to train and
work with.
