15.3 hands and growing. He never raced or worked due to breaking his front sesamoid as a foal.
Pinkie is a quiet and intelligent gelding who responds well to support and encourgement from his handler and rider. He has done well in his initial under-saddle training and is practicing maintaining steady gaits, responding to cues for gait changes, and understanding requests to change direction.
Pinkie enjoys hacks around the farm and does well when encountering new things. He doesn’t mind when horses in the field run up to see him and traffic on a nearby road doesn’t seem to bother him, though he is not right next to the road. He enjoys the attention from grooming and spending time with people. He walks politely on a lead rope and gets along well with his pasture friends. Pinkie stays quiet in his stall and spends most of the day dozing off and on. He settles down quickly to graze and occasionally runs and plays while he is outside.
Due to his injury as a foal, he will be suitable for dressage and trails only.
Pinkie was gelded on 2/15/24.
He stood well for his vet exam.
