Dakota is an 12 year old grey Quarter Horse. 15.2 Hands and a beautiful mover. Bred for pleasure and trained for reining.

With a skilled rider, he would be suitable for dressage, team penning and reined cow horse. He is really an "all around" horse with trail riding, fitting and showmanship and so on.

Lots of buttons because of his training. Quick stops, nice spins, great roll-backs. Alot of round pen and natural horsemanship training. Very good ground manners and is easy to work around. He is a quiet horse, yet very sensitive to what the rider wants him to do. No major injuries, always been sound.

He would make a great first reining horse for someone who already knows how to ride and is looking for a reiner. He has 9 months professional reining training at Summerwind Farm (Bob LaPorta and Dutch Chapman) in Maryland in the year 2000 per his previous owner. http://www.swfreininghorses.com/frntpg.a sp = website to check out.

Previous owner showed five seasons with Dakota in local reining shows, western pleasure, trail and some NRHA. In reining, Dakota earned Green Horse and Green Rider Championships, Rookie, Ladies & Novice Horse Championships. In western pleasure he was either champion or reserve champion at the local shows.

He has an NRHA membership ID under his previous owner. She rode him in “green horse” and “green rider” divisions. In 2001, his previous owner showed him in Green Rider and Green Horse divisions in the Yankee Reining Horse Association in NY, where they won the champion for both divisions. In 2003, they were Rookie champion, and Novice Horse Non Pro Reserve Champion in the Central New York Reining Horse Association. In 2004, his previous owner, rode Dakota and was named the Ladies Champion for the Yankee Reining Horse Association. He has had five show seasons with Green Horse and Green Rider Championships, Rookie, Ladies & Novice Horse Championships in reining.

Dakota was bred for pleasure and trained for reining. He is a lot of round pen and natural horsemanship training per his previous owner. He was shown a lot in 2004 and 2005 at western at local open shows where his previous owner placed champion or reserve champion at every one.

I am his second owner, a beginner rider, and I have found that Dakotas' training exceeds my abilities. He was very patient with my riding skills and has been a lesson horse for me for two years.
I recently had him undergo reining training for 30 days with lessons for me so that I could learn the reining cues. Great training experience for us both. He has been back home for 3 weeks and I have only ridden him 3 times. I just do not have the schedule/time available for him and getting ready for shows and such. Hence, I would like to find him a home that will show him and use him for the skills he has.

Both of my daughters (ages 9 and 11 y.o.) have ridden him. Could be a great horse for a youth reiner. Looking for a home that can truly use this horse for the training that it has.

Dakota loves to be loved and will run to greet you at the fence. Gets along with all other horses. Easy to clip, haul, vet and farrier. Great ground manners.
