One of the most fun horses of any age

Just like his brothers, he's got the perfect mind for learning anything we've ever showed him and he never forgets a lesson. I have ever had the opportunity with which to work. He's so proud going and makes you feel like a million and still gentle as a lamb whether you're playing with him on the ground or up on his back having one of the best rides of you life. Out on the trail he is cool-headed, confident, sure-footed, and equally important he is patient and quiet.
He goes down trails with ease but if getting off the trail is your thing then he's your Huckleberry as he is just as great where there is no trail. He reminds me so much of Harold (top of the Sold Horse page) in every way that I find myself sometime forgetting who I'm riding and I tend to want to call him by the same name, so he's become "Harold, too" for me. He's got such a personality that seems almost human and the easiest/sweetest horse no matter what you may be wanting to do.
Out on the trail he's tackled any and every thing/situation that has arisen from difficult terrain to whatever type of wildlife, which can come out of nowhere. And he has done it all with the confidence and professionalism of the much older horse that many think are the only ones settled country email list enough to deliver the solid ride we all want to enjoy. Even if he weren't the beautiful Grey that he is, I would still want as many more like him as could be found because these are the only type horses that make the "great ones" who take perfect care of their human partners for years to come.
This boy has something much more valuable than a Heart of Bold, has a gigantic Heart of Gold. Alt. Pic Head Pic Video I took this boy today to use as my camera horse to get trail videos of King, which we did, but I also shot a couple of him as well. He was awesome.Trail Pic Trail Video Enjoy. I needed to go around the road a few miles to look at a hay field that will soon be ready and I wanted to see how it was coming along. So, instead of driving the truck I decided to enjoy the beautiful day and ride my favorite boy, Heart of Bold aka HaroldII.
It could not have been a better ride and he proved to me again (just like always) that he is one of the absolute best we've ever had the pleasure to offer. We went past dogs, hogs, cows, unidentifiable pieces of junk, all kinds of traffic, and much more with him just taking it in and going on down the road with ease. Never a spook, bobble, jump, or anything else except delivering a totally enjoyable ride for a couple of hours.
And as a side note, as of that day he had not been saddled and ridden in probably at least a month due to having others to work and some very busy days keeping up with all the routine stuff that requires so much time. It goes to show me once again that while great training is obviously vital, DNA and a great student to begin with trumps it all. All the ladies love him. Cassanova Slim Pickens is another example of just why we go back to certain bloodlines over and over again. He's the brother to both Freckles and Pretty Boy who are two of the best we've ever raised up and both of the ladies that made them their partners would not take a million bucks for them.
