Caspian, Bay Mustang For Sale in Georgia
$ 400
Caspian's owner has been a long-time student of Progressive Horsemanship, a form of natural horsemanship, and it shows in the quality of his training. He came to her as a wild mustang yearling for the 2008 Extreme Mustang Makeover in Texas. He was a very successful competitor and she went on to start him under saddle in 2010. Her hard work shows as Caspian has successfully ridden in ACTHA competitive trail rides and in our local Currahee Saddle Club shows, bringing home many ribbons. He has a jog that western judges love and an easy canter. He is a master of all Progressive ground work, knows his canter leads, hindquarters / frontquarters / stops / backs off leg alone, sidepasses, is beginning collection, works gates, handles all the typical obstacles, loves to trail ride, and is extremely light and responsive while still being reasonable. Cas will stand tied all day, get on any trailer (and back off of it) without hesitation, bathe, flyspray, vet while sleeping, enjoys the farrier, and deworms with no effort. Where he is lacking is enough to do. Caspian loves and needs to have a job, to be challenged and kept busy-- a more and more difficult thing for his owner who is working, in college, and engaged to be married soon. His attitude and outlook are awesome when he is being ridden and worked frequently, but he gets sour and mischievous when left to get bored and is not a horse who likes to be left out in the pasture. He does need an experienced person who understands boundaries and performance expectations as, at his age, he will test to see what he "really" needs to do and I would imagine that his level of performance would begin to slide if he were not held accountable. Someone wanting a working / performance / competitive trail horse who understood and was willing to consistently implement least resistance methods would soar with Caspian. If you are interested in meeting Cas or seeing his owner work / ride Caspian, please contact us and we'll set something up.<br><br>Caspian is being offered for adoption through Herds of Hooves, a small non-profit rescue in NE GA, so that his long term care will hopefully be ensured. Adopters will become Caspian's owner, but will sign an adoption agreement that he must never be sold at auction or to potential slaughter buyers.
