He rides well with other horses, loads very nicely, and is an easy keeper. Sampson is looking for a home with someone that has intermediate riding skills and would like to trail ride.

Katie
Katie is a nice riding horse for casual riding. Last Saturday she completed a 7 mile trail with a 14 year old rider and did very well. She is 25 years old and stands about 15 hands high. Although Katie doesn't think 25 is old, we are looking for a home for her that will do only casual 3-4 hour trail rides. She will do well for a light rider with medium riding skills. Katie loads well, stands for the farrier and is up to date on vaccinations, deworming and teeth floating.
Adoption fee for Katie is $400
Queenie
Queenie is that rare horse which is calm by nature, gentle, forgiving of human misstep, and willing to please. She was running with a band of wild horses when captured, although she has some obvious domestic breeding. We estimate her to be about 8 years old. Queenie is about 15 HH and about 900 lbs. She is currently in saddle training, and is a star student. Queenie handles new things with grace, and is making remarkable progress in her development. She halters, leads, loads and accepts the saddle without any complaint.
