Charley is the coolest guy! He is always relaxed, happy and flows through all three gaits without changing his expression. He's an old, kind soul and so willing. He is quiet out on the trails, though town and soft in the arena! He rides well in just a plain smooth mouth snaffle and has a nice neck rein and direct rein. He has a nice stop, backs up and turns around both ways. He works a gate smoothly forwards and backwards, crosses water, ditches, bridges, ranch ropes etc. He handles terrain with easy and really carries himself and his rider well. He’s balanced and relaxed. He stands quiet for mount and dismount. He will go out alone and with other horses. Charley has good ground manners, is easy to catch, lead, load, haul, stands tied, bathes, grooms, gentle to pick feet, saddles, and bridles, and is quiet for the vet and the farrier. Gets along well with other horses in the barn and out to pasture.
