DALI
5 years old
Appaloosa gelding
varnish roan, not registered
15.1hh
Very intelligent and gentle
Started under saddle in walk and trot
beautiful gaits
His Background
Dali has come to us as part of a herd of pmu yearlings. His earliest experience at the hand of humans was scary and
painful - the herd was generally moved with the help of cattle prods. Up to the time when they arrived here, they have
never experienced the gentle touch of a human hand. While Dali is mentally very willing to trust, his body still reacts
to the first impulse of pulling back. This will likely diminish as his training becomes more regular.
Dali has sired a beautiful filly with our registered QH mare. As the result of being gelded at a late stage, he continues to display strong stallion behaviour. As long as he can live in a natural environment with mares or be with just geldings, he is a happy and very gentle horse.
The Right Owner
Will have an extensive knowledge of the nature of horses
Will be an experienced horseperson
Will have a good sense of humour
Will never need to use force to teach Dali, but be patient, focussed, and persistent
Will view learning as a mutual process
Will provide Dali with an environment which includes other horses
Will be agreeable to sign a buy-back agreement
Will feel comfortable consulting us in any arising questions re. care of this horse and allow us to enquire on his wellbeing at reasonable times.
The Team
The Team, working as equal partners, will bring out the best and most interesting in each other and dazzle the crowds
with what they can accomplish together!
