Stryker is an amazing representative for the breed. He embodies everything good about a rocky. Beautiful, naturally gaited, easy to train, loving, bold, fearless. He has handled everything we have thrown out him with hardly any reaction at all. He’s amazing, he has had ground work and handling done, he will just about train himself. Hes trailer loads ties, stands for ferrier, he’s greats you at the gate and catches himself. He has started to carry a bit when we work with him and carried a saddle but not ridden or mounted. He is very trainable, and calm, my 9 year old son has done all of his training to date. He loves kids and his very soft and sweet.
