Would it matter whether or not I search east side or wetside? Wetside horses would be acclimated to this side?
She’s looking for 7-15 yo, 15h or less, $5kish, partial to palomino, no white. Not getting picky huh? 😂

My daughter owns the horse you are looking, not sure if she’ll part with him. She is using him for her HS equestrian team. I’ll ask her?We have bought more horses than I’d like to think about.The funniest advice I have is make the owner you are buying from ride it first and then tell them what to do on it. We have actually had a few refuse to ride their own horse after they just bragged about. Some give really good excuses too...LOL.
Machias that is one good looking mule and agree that it takes time to find THE ONE, but when you do you know it. A lot of "equestrian" folks won't consider riding a mule but they are IMO a smoother more enjoyable ride than a lot of the supposed smooth horses

About as bomb proof as they get. I used her two years on mounted search and rescue. We would go to desensitizing clinics and everyone with a horse wanted to follow Abbey as she would not balk at anything I asked her to doing.
We were at Bryce Canyon once many years ago to ride horses into the canyon. The wrangler rode up on a mule and started asking everyone what they wanted to ride. All the women wanted horses…I saw the wrangler ride up on a mule so I told him that I wanted a mule….he smiled and winked at me! I had myself a trouble free, smooth ride that day! 😁
She’s (wife) getting wound up again. She found a horse (Rockin’ J Performance horses) from Kennewick. I’ll always be broke won’t I? 😂
