ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 3
COMMENTS: This horse has been in the Amish world most of his life. You can get him to canter, but it will need a lot of work. This is a safe horse. He did come in a little thin but will put on weight now that he is here.

GROUND MANNERS: Very Kind mare. No issues
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 2+/3
COMMENTS: This horse would make a good beginner horse W/T or could be a trail horse because she is "couch like". She is very kind. Stays to the rail and has probably been to saddlebred school. She is a natural flat walker. Her canter needs work. She is better one direction than the other.

GOOD ON TRAILS?: Not tested
GROUND MANNERS: good no issues
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 3
COMMENTS: Currently we are working on training him to square up. On the lunge line he trots totally square, but under saddle is in not square. His back end travels behind him and will hop at the trot. We have been working on pushing him up into the bridle to get his legs under him. He does stay to the rail and can canter. If interested in this horse you MUST come out to see him before we will adopt him out.

ESTIMATED AGE:
WALK-TROT-CANTER: W/T/C
GOOD ON TRAILS?: Unknown
GROUND MANNERS: Very good. No issues
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 3+ possibly 4/4+ as he gets more fit.
COMMENTS: This horse lunges well and probably has been to saddlebred school. His is very typee. He has put on weight quickly and has gotten gamer as he has put weight on. He was gaited at some point in his life. He is very pretty (looks like a nutcracker horse and has absolutely been in the show world. Although he does canter, his canter needs circle work which we have started. He canters better one way than the other.
SBR APRIL'S STAR
REGISTERED: Need to do DNA
SEX: Mare
HEIGHT: 15.3
ESTIMATED AGE: Teens
WALK-TROT-CANTER: W/T/C (but not comfortable at the canter currently)
GOOD ON TRAILS?: Unknown
GROUND MANNERS: Good. Very kind mare
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 2+
COMMENTS: This horse is very laid back and very kind. She did not want to be ridden in a German Martingale and did much better once we removed it. She does canter but is not very comfortable in her backend when doing so. We have started her with the red blanket and put her on equinox to see if that improves. She does canter easier one way than the other. At this point we think she would make a good beginner lesson horse or a trail horse.

SBR AUGUSTO

ESTIMATED AGE: Teens
WALK-TROT-CANTER: W/T/C
GOOD ON TRAILS?: Not tried
GROUND MANNERS: Good on the ground very quiet.
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 3+
COMMENTS: When Augusto arrived he was a little nervous but he is getting better. He came in directly from an Amish farm. He will canter, but it needs work. He canters on the right lead very well. The left lead tends to get a little "mixed gaity" We do believe he was in saddlebred school. We do really like this horse and think he will do well as a lesson or academy horse.
SBR SUNNY

WALK-TROT-CANTER: Not yet broke to ride
GOOD ON TRAILS?: Too young
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 2 year old level!
COMMENTS: This horse was donated into the program. He needs to go to a trainer who has worked with young horses. He has not yet been broke to ride, but we are starting that process. He does lead, he is easy to handle and good to catch. He is a very pretty horse and is a well-bred horse.

GOOD ON TRAILS?: Not tested
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 3+/4
COMMENTS: This horse is a cute as a button! This horse is game but not in a bad way. She gets showy but does flat walk. She would be perfect as an academy equitation horse. Your legs will not move with the canter. The canter does need some work to slow it down. This horse has never done anything bad. Not spooky at all. This horse gets two thumbs up from Nealia!

GOOD ON TRAILS?: Not tested
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 2
COMMENTS: This horse came in thin and body sore. Not lame. Just sore. He was on the road. We have been using the blanket on him and working on getting him relaxed. He has a nice canter but it is better one way than the other. He looks like he was gaited at some point and has had his tail in a set. We believe as he gets more comfortable, he will get better in better. Right now we don't know how he would do riding in the grey area.

COMMENTS: Matt is a younger horse. He stays to the rail and he seems like he is a good thinker. He is still under evaluation after coming to us. Before here, he was being ridden at clinics, jumped lightly, and ridden on trails.

COMMENTS: Baydito came to us very nervous. But since then he has settled right in. He is a little "humpy" when you first get on but he walks right out of it. He is still under evaluation, but we do not feel he would be a good beginner, beginner horse.
SBR MIA
REGISTERED: Yes

HEIGHT: 15.2 hands
ESTIMATED AGE: Foaled in 2010
GROUND MANNERS: Good on the ground. Safe and easy to deal with.
WALK-TROT-CANTER: W/T/C
GOOD ON TRAILS?: Have not tried.
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 4
COMMENTS: This mare was donated into the program and was never on the road. She is very cute! She was purchased originally as a show horse and she is very much that. She is not a natural flat walker. She needs to have an experienced rider with good hands. She does WTC, her canter is a little fast but we are working on getting her to slow down. We do not believe that she will fit into a big lesson program. But would make a practice horse for 1 or 2 people. Ideally we think she will work best if placed with a trainer.

GOOD ON TRAILS?: Probably not suited
ENERGY LEVEL (1=Low, 5=High): 5
COMMENTS: Nugget is available through either the adoption or the lease program. He needs an advanced rider that is light in their hands and calm. He has been shown in a full bridle once. We are currently getting him use to different riders on him.
