Mr. Sugar Dust is current on dental, farrier, and deworming. He is barefoot. No known injuries. He has had 90 days of professional training. He has excellent leg pressure, moves off of the slightest touch. Yields hindquarters, shoulders, pivots, and side-passes. Is extremely responsive to the bit and will turn which ever way off of you just lifting your hand. With a gentle squeeze of your legs he will speed up, doesn’t require any kicking and is always ready to go faster. He has a wide range of speeds within each gait and is plenty happy to walk, trot, lope, or gallop. He is very responsive to seat pressure, if you sit back he is stopping, if you lean on your right seat bone he is going right and vice versa. If you sit back and lean either way he will pivot around purely off of seat. He is very smart and willing to learn. However, he does perform much better with consistent riding. He picks up all four feet. He stands tied and gives no fuss when being saddled. Stands still when mounted. Loads in a trailer fine. I have taken him on a few trail rides, but needs a little more experience doing that before I’d call him a finished trail horse. He likes to lead but will follow as well. Rides alone better but will ride with another horse. Does not fight you when you ride and is willing to go wherever. Has a sweet disposition and is very in-tune with the rider. He has crossed creeks and gone over fallen trees and been through the woods. However, he does tend to be jumpy. I have done tarp work with him, small jumps, and a few other scary objects but he still needs more work. He can be sensitive and can occasionally react when startled by unfamiliar sights or sounds. He does not do well with a harsh rider. He does fantastic with a gentle, confident rider but not an aggressive rider. He is very willing to learn and will do great if given a consistent job. Once he understands a job he performs it excellently. His one flaw is he occasionally will give a light buck, but usually he rides fine. He isn't actually trying to throw the rider, he is just letting you know he is upset. He will take about 1 to 2 weeks to get used to you because he is a little wary of strangers.
