Grade

UTD on farrier

Peter is broke to ride and drive by the Amish. I would not suggest him as an independent ride for a beginner child, however he is also leadline broke and beginners can ride him that way. This would be a fantastic ranchy pony for a handy kid looking for something that will challenge them in a safe way. He had an unknown amount of off time before he came to us so we're calling him green broke currently.

We have not tried to drive him, so l am unsure of his driving status. We have used him as leadline for a total beginner and had a handy kid ride him bare back before. No nasty behavior, but he won't pay any attention to what is being asked of him by a passive child or a child that doesn't know how to ride. His most annoying habit is pulling down to eat grass, this can frustrate a kid without the upper body strength to make him listen.

Peter stands to be groomed, clipped, bathe, and he loads. There is some young-horse wiggling with his standing. He has been worked with a lot recently on ground manners when leading and is very responsive to stopping and backing.

He takes treats politely, loves to talk to you in his stall, and is used to a turn out / stall at night routine. He is easy to catch and is often waiting at the gate. Well balanced build, super pretty little guy.
