Molly just turned 5 years old this past June. She is halter broke and I have started her on the ground. She has accepted the bit (no problem!) and is learning to yield to pressure. I have been ground driving her. She has accepted the saddle and a rider - again, no problem. She just has no clue what you want her to do! She loads, clips, stands for farrier/vet, stands tied (although I have never had her in cross ties), etc., etc. No vices. I've had her about a year and she is used to being out on pasture 99% of the time. She is easy to catch (especially if you have a molasses cookie with you!) She gets along with the other horses she is pastured with but she tends to be "the leader." However, just because is the leader of her pasture buddies, does not mean she challenges her handler. Her ground manners are very good. She is not pushy at all. She is very easy to handle with just the lightest touch. Although, on rare occassions, she has gotten a little bit stubborn when being led and planted her feet for a few seconds. Again, with a firm voice and light encouragement, she comes along fine. I think it may be that she wants to stop and look at something rather than refusing to be led. She was checked by the vet about 2 weeks ago. Teeth did not need to be done and I got a Coggins test (negative, of course). UTD on worming. Will probably be due for a trim in 2 weeks. She has never had shoes. Her feet are good. Although you can't see it in the pictures, her mane is very long and thick!

One of the most special things about this mare is that I'm only the second owner. The original owner had her since birth. She is like a totally blank slate because she has never been mistreated in any way or handled roughly. In working with her I have found her to be intelligent, gentle, patient, responsive to praise and very tolerant. When something does startle her, she is not one to bolt and go crazy - that may be the draft horse in her I guess. She has a very kind eye and trusts easily with patient and gentle handling. Sometimes there is a bit of "child-like" innocence about her which is very endearing

She is registered as a Premium North American Spotted Draft. She is 1/2 shire and 1/2 spotted draft with some belgian in her background as well. Stands 16+ hands

Would consider trade for a haflinger that rides and drives
