I would just like to give you kudos for bringing along a horse this way! BAREFOOT, HAPPY and WITHOUT UNNECCESSARY HARDWARE/FITTINGS!!! I was so impressed with the sans-cavesson, mild snaffle, no running martingale or breastplate…the general lack of all the “uniform strappings” often seen in the competition world. This is a testament to a good mind, well-trained, not-overfaced, well-fitting tack (saddle stays in place) and good sound hooves (barefoot)
This goes a long way in my world. How refreshing!

Hello there.
I am actually Arctic Blue’s trainer. I started him under saddle and have brought him along. He is a lovely horse, very striking in person, with an A+ personality. He’s very sweet and has been a pleasure to work with. He, so far, has seemed to gives height to his babies. One of his two year olds is still on property, and he is probably pushing 16.1 at the moment. Blue has great bone and feet, he is still going barefoot and we’ve been showing and jumping him 3’6"-3’9" at the moment (showing at 3’3" to gain confidence). He’s got a truly fantastic front end as well, very tight with his knees
Anything you’d like to know about him, please go ahead and ask. Either I can answer it or can get you in touch with his owners.[/QUOTE]
