Here is Gwak at home, this is his first trip down the road over to the neighbors arena for most of the video. He stands tied nicely to the side of the trailer to saddle, get on and go he is not cinchy or barn sour at all. This colt is always willing to go to work. Sorry the video isnt the greatest, the footing was horrible after all the rain and my camera man had a short attention span as well as some mosquitoe problems :)
Gwak is currently offered for sale!
Guacamole is by Chex This Lena Doc and out of Peponitas Moonshine, who goes back to Doc O'Lena and Peppy San. He is not papered, but all the paperwork is in order if you wish to register him.
Gwak has had a few solid months on him this year and measures about 14.2, he cross ties, picks up his feet and stands well for the farrier, saddles, bridles and blankets, I think I have even used a small set of clippers on him. He has loaded well the few times I have loaded him. He was blanketed outside all winter and was occasionally inside. He stables very nicely and is quiet and calm in his stall. He has been exposed to kids riding bikes and scooters up and down the alley as well as dogs playing fetch past his stall; as well as following him or running in front of him on rides. I led my pup on a lunge line off him when we go down the road. He has been ridden indoors and outdoors, by himself and with others. He jogs over poles, I have swung a rope off him, drug things like toy tractors, poles, jump blocks and the toboggan with him as well as opened and closed an umbrella while walking around the arena on him. I ride him with spurs and have recenrly been riding him in a german martingale. I have always used a snaffle on him. He crosses water and mud, and stands while a get on and off with the puppy to carry her across the creek as she doesnt cross water as well as him... He is a great colt and a very quick learner. He is sure footed outside and walks out well, he will make miles and he keeps up with the thoroughbreds on trail rides. He has some speed to him and would make a likely gymkhana prospect as well, but is happy to just walk down the driveway quietly too or go on a trail ride through the field.
After being turned out for the last month and a bit I recently camped out on Gwak for six hours a day, he was saddled at eight in the morning and unsaddled at five. After having time off going back to work didnt faze him. He stood in the arena while I coached gymkhana, as well as demonstrated a little bit of poles, barrels and stakes. He walked over the flour line with no fuss for the first time and needs to be patterned but shows tons of potential as a gymkhana pony. He was exposed to lots of different situations over the last three days, I even started opening and closing gates on him. The train going past the fair ground, lawnmowers pulling trailers, a two horse hitch, horses and kids everywhere, plastic bag and tents/tarps flapping around in the wind, ect. I set up poles and barrels off him, carrying them across the arena. I also played games off him such as muck-tub basketball, musical cups, chinese firedrills and more.
