11/08/24: Snickers has proven to be very willing in answering the questions asked and has a very logical mind. There are moments, when she can panic riding out in the open and she will grab the bit, try to lope, and go where she wants to. Our trainer is working on improving this behavior. At this time, Snicker still needs an expert rider.
10/01/24 Trainer update: Snickers has proven to be very willing in answering the questions asked. She has a very logical mind and doesn’t seem to be too reactive in open areas, however if brought to higher speeds in a dense area she tends to get going at her speed with little concern for her balance or self-preservation. Still needs an expert rider.
Snickers has been in training for the past few months to be started under saddle. She now has been ridden for about a month. She has been exposed to trail rides and cows. Snickers is a sweet girl who has taken to new things really well. She is a confident mare who is not easily startled. She really wants to be a quiet and relaxed girl. Because of her limited time under saddle, she still would need at least an intermediate to advanced rider to help further along her training.
