“Her owner has said, “She doesn’t bite, kick, or buck, and she doesn’t run away when I fall off!” This is true - she has a very good nature. I rode Abby a month and a half for a tune up, just a few times a week and she is delightful. I really like this mare. She picks right up where you left off the last time; she’s very smart.” – Trainer Sara Licht, Madison, Wisconsin
Abby is an easy keeper and has been healthy the entire 10 years with her current owner. She’s been exposed to loud machinery, jumps, other horses riding around, various distractions on the property and on trail rides and she handles it all very well. She prefers to trail ride with a buddy, and is very sensible.
Abby stands about 15 hands high, and is boarded at Saddle Ridge Stables, in Oregon, Wisconsin, where you can meet her in person.

VIDEOS OF ABBY November, 2010
(these are all unrehearsed, and includes her getting warmed up. I just saddled her up and we got on, with no prior longeing or round pen time.)
Walking warm up:
Trotting warm up (video below.) Abby would be suitable for Western or English style. I warm her up in a forward trot, posting, and then in the latter part of this video I ask her to do a slower trot that is easy to sit.
The video below is a bit long, but shows both canter leads. If you get bored, skip to about 4:15 for her Right canter lead, and then at the end I talk about how she feels to ride.
