NC: 5 y/o TB Mare (Sound! Solid W/T/C) - Not Available

[NCSue]

I leased this mare from a fellow COTHer to ride while my gelding healed w/o realizing that I was facing multiple surgeries. She is a very nice horse.

Height: 16H, but growing. Probably almost 16.1H
Color: Liver chestnut with half stripe
Weight: 1100 (guessing)
Location: Williamston, NC

She has a solid w/t/c. Great work ethic. Green over fences. No refusal. Taken over 2'. Could easily show Intro dressage this year or hunter under saddle. She looks to her handler for confidence and enjoys attention. Never seen her spook. No vices. Easy going. Can turn out with either geldings or mares. Fairly easy keeper. Current on all health care. Currently barefoot but will be putting on front shoes. Clips, blankets, bathes, ties.

This mare is talented enough to be finished in whatever direction you desire. She does have a love for jumping. Not really forward but does have plenty of go. Would make a very nice teen or amateur horse.

She has, as far as I remember, only changed homes once and that was when she came to me. It took her a couple days to settle. Has no show experience.

Respects electric fences.

Lower on pecking order and prefers quiet herd.

She does need trailer loading training. Only time she really was on a trailer was for the extended trip to NC from NH.

Pictures available.

References required. Her owner will be involved in approving any new homes.

Hi
Do you think this mare would be suitable for an advanced beginner teen that is very dedicated. If so could you PM me some pics and I can explain my situation more. Thanks

Most definitely. Sending you a PM

Bump. Bump.

This mare is on the lazy side. She is not a hot horse. Very calm. Almost spookproof. Very much a "whatever" horse. Real cutie who loves people.

Hi there,

If your mare is still available, could you please pm me some pictures of her?

Thank you!

NCSue, did you get the PM I sent you a couple of days ago?

[NCSue]

Coloredhorse I did get your PM. Had the flu so apologize for slow reply. I did PM you back.

To answer a few questions:

(1) I do not think this mare has the fowardness to be a jumper

(2) I do not feel that this mare has enough hours under saddle to make her a good lesson horse. She still needs training.

(3) This is a free long term lease, not a giveaway

(4) She is extremely green over fences. Only been jumped a few times. She shows boldness and a liking for jumping but she needs lots and lots of training. Would not, at least with the way I train, be ready to show o/f this coming show season.

(5) She could do some flat classes or Intro dressage this coming show season.

Good morning. If your mare is still available, I am definitely interested in speaking to you further. I've taken about 3 years off after a fairly bad riding accident and am excited about riding again. I've been around horses all of my life and helped train several, so feel I'd be a good match for your mare. The calmness that you spoke of would not be an issue since most of my riding is cross country trails and light hunt/jump. I'm looking for a quiet, sweet natured animal to be as much a family pet as a ridden mount. I've got 3 1/2 acres and a six stall barn that needs an occupant, so please do get back with me if you can.

Thanks so much for your consideration and have a great day.

Update: Mare is still available. She is being ridden and worked on a somewhat consistent basis at this time. Trailer loading is improving. She is loading and unloading but still a little nervous if she is by herself.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting me know about Cody. He's really been on my mind. He doesn't like biting bugs. Really he doesn't. Figured you deserved a heads up. Glad to hear things are going well. Yeap this is the sweet red headed girl. So far no good matches and at this moment I'm thinking she's staying with me.
