We have owned “Belle” for the last 4 years. She is an awesome trail/ranch horse. The last 30 days she has been with a trainer on a ranch doing everything a good ranch horse does. She is big, beautiful and she definitely doesn’t show her age. She is sound and UTD on all vacs and teeth. Here’s the story…last year my husband got on her and she bucked. We don’t know why she did it, she’s never done it before. He suffered a severe injury and had a long recovery. We recently sent her to a trainer on a ranch in Eastern Oregon. We did learn a bit about her history and found out she was abused at a branding several years ago. While she did not buck or act crazy at all during the 30 days she was ridden by him on the ranch, we just don’t have the desire to keep her. As you can see from the videos, she knows what to do. We did not use her as a rope horse only a pleasure/trail horse. Unfortunately, I lost my gelding suddenly last month, so this means she is the only horse in our pasture. She needs a job and a person! She currently has shoes but has been barefoot for the last 3 years and has very good hooves. She has excellent ground manners, good to load, shoe, saddle, stands still to mount. She is not for your Grandma or your 5 year old to ride. She needs an intermediate/experienced rider. I have a round pen and an area you can try her out. I can share my trainer’s number with you if you are serious. $3500 obo
