Max is a stout, solid gelding who’s ready for a new friend. He tends to be low on the pecking order and is relaxed and easy going. Max has wonderful manners when riding alone and gets along well on group trail rides. Max has extremely respectful ground manners and stands well for the farrier. Max has no bite, buck or kick. Max ties, leads, loads and bathes well. He has been exposed to an array of desensitization and has had a few water crossing lessons. Max has jumped small jumps during ground work, crossed large tarps, flown flags and has been through some basic roping prep. Max has pushed cows with confidence and has been rode around cars and four wheelers. He gets along well with others, has been very low maintenance and has done well barefoot.
