Meet Ariat, a 7-year-old dark buckskin gelding standing at a perfect 14.2 hands tall. This handsome boy has truly captured the heart of our trainer, Henry, who describes him as one of the most honest and full-hearted horses he is ever ridden. Ariat has been on countless trail rides, moonlight rides with large groups, and even competed in a ranch hand competition—all without any fuss or issues. Born and raised locally, Ariat was often ridden by children, and he shows a special fondness for them, taking extra care when they are around or on his back. With no bad habits, whether in the barn or out in the pasture, Ariat always comes when called, meeting you at the gate or stall door. His steady, laid-back personality does not require daily riding to stay consistent. He has three smooth, easy-to-ride gaits and is well-trained both in the arena and on trails. Ariat can be ridden English, pop over small jumps, and is a joy to ride bareback—even without a bridle. He picks up new things quickly and loves learning. Ariat has been exposed to various animals, wildlife, and obstacles, walking onto any trailer with ease and remaining calm no matter the destination. Desensitized to gunshots, tarps, and balls. With his striking dark buckskin color and black points, he is sure to turn heads wherever he goes. At 14.2 hands tall, Ariat is a great size for riders of all ages and is dependable enough for first-time riders. He is traffic safe, crosses bridges effortlessly, and navigates any water, whether it is a creek, stream, puddle, or deeper river.
