DUKE is a 7 year old Percheron/morgan gelding standing 16.2 hands high. He is brave, comfortable, and built to last. There is no horse built better ! Duke has the brains, athletic ability, and sensibility to tackle any terrain with any level rider. He's suitably sized for the husband or a larger rider, yet so gentle that we can ride around the trails.. He is light and soft, with comfortable gaits, making for an easy and smooth ride. He is educated on the flat, brave to even the most intimidating fences, and reliable on absolutely any terrain.

Duke has been exposed to the show ring last summer and is a great mover.. In the ring, Duke is putting together first level tests with ease, and knows all of the lateral work. He will ride round in the bridle, or stretch out . Whatever your preference or discipline, Duke has the training and versatility to fit into the job you want to do that day. He loves to do working equitation drills and enjoys learning new things with his rider. Dressage clinics, cross country schooling, trail obstacle classes, Duke has done it all and has been a fun and safe parter to try things on. He is forgiving and kind with riders of all levels. Riding him, you don't feel like you're on a big draft cross. He is light and soft in the bridle, with comfortable, easy to sit gaits. He side passes, pivots, and rides well off the seat and leg.

On the trails, DUKE is trustworthy and sure footed. He loves water, and will cross any creek, bridge, road, or ditch without a second thought. He is brave and steady going up and down steep hills, banks, deep water, and on busy roadways. DUKE is used to loading up and going to ride new places, and is the same horse on and off property. He rides aline, in a group, and off from the group without issue.

In the barn, Duke is the biggest puppy dog. He absolutely adores his people and soaks up any attention he can get. He's well mannered and gentle, and is used to the kids loving on him constantly. In the pasture, he will follow you around all day - he is a true pal! He would like to move into the house with you if you'd let him! He has a sweet, personable, personality that everyone falls in love with. Duke is great with other horses in pasture, and is a good boy when stalled as well. He has no vices, and requires no maintenance.
