Strong and Gentle Quarter Horse Gelding

This is an extremely user friendly gelding that is very comfortable to ride. Whether you’re a beginner or have just been out of the saddle awhile, this gelding will take care of you. He’s one handed broke and works off of leg pressure well. His trot and lope are very comfortable and easy to sit, and he side passes both directions with ease as well. If you’re wanting to just go down the trail, you can let him have three foot of rein and not have to worry about him taking advantage of it. He’s great at keeping an even tempo in all gaits and has a more “whoah” than “go” attitude! Copper has packed everyone from experienced cowboys to the youngest ones just learning what left and right mean. He’s a super fun guy to ride as he’s willing to do what’s asked, loves going for a swim, and even rides bareback in halter – PERFECT for the summertime weather we’re fixing to experience if you want to take a dip into the pond! Copper is a complete gentleman on the ground and ground ties for most everything. He stands patiently for grooming/saddling/bridling, stands for you to mount, and basically picks up his feet for you as well. He’s an extremely kind gelding with an enormous heart that just wants to please. Copper takes prosperity well too. We’ve gotten on him after being penned up for three weeks on all you can eat free choice alfalfa with no prior warm up and he never so much as tossed his head. This is the kind of gelding that you can throw anyone on and never have to question if they’ll be okay. He has no bad habits, stalls well, is extremely easy to catch, and gets along with everyone in the herd from mares to weanlings to miniature ponies. Copper does toe in slightly on the front end. It in no way has ever effected his soundness and he does not need any special shoeing or maintenance to stay comfortable and sound.
