Smokey is a safe, smooth, fun ride. We bought him 3 years ago from a family in Tennessee for my husband. My husband can’t ride anymore due to bad knees and so Smokey needs a new adventure. Smokey moves off your leg. He has 5 gaits that are all smooth and has great transitions. He side passes and backs on cue. He rides with the quarter horses or gaited horses down the trail. When you ask him to gait, Smokey effortlessly moves into it. If you want more speed you just ask and he will fly. He comes right back down when you ask. He has been camping at Bryce Canyon and ridden through Bryce Canyon. He happily rides anywhere in the group, middle, back or front and adjusts easily to whatever is going on in the group. Smokey also rides alone and can ride away from the group. He walks through water, over hills, down ravines. He also rides on the street, big trucks or fast cars don’t bother him. He stands quietly while mounting. The farrier loves him and Smokey has nice feet. He is current on vaccines, deworming and is shod. He will vet.
