I'm settled

Nike is definatly going up for lease. I just rode him bareback, and he was magnificent. Lazy, but magnificent. He is sooo responsive, I had him at a working trot, his head was nicely tucked on a loose rein (when your legs are just right, he'll do it, but otherwise you just have to have a steady hand and he will), and he was turning to just my leg cues.... gah, i could just eat him up. But he deserves to be ridden, and I'm going to be in Arkansas for the summer, so it's really just not fair to him. It's never been fair to him. He gets ridden maybe once every 2 months or so. So, I'm going to see if Sig wants to lease him to use in lessons, and if not, I'm going to be searching. So if you know anyone interested, let me know. He's a 1993 arab gelding, great bloodlines (not that it matters), he's 14.3 hh on one of my sticks, 14.1hh on the other. I've always called him 14.3 though. I want whoever gets him to take out insurance on him, and to physically lay their hands on him at least once a week, with no tack. Just to make sure that he's at proper weight. If he goes to someone near me, I want permission to show up unannounced and check on him. The lease itself wouldn't be for very much provided that they take excellent care of him. Goes english or western. He's shown and done well in english (top 10 at state, and always in the ribbons locally...at 4-H....), but honestly I only recently started western because I just recently got a saddle that doesn't swallow him whole. He's been jumped, but not often by me, but apparently he did very well, and eventually stopped jumping like an Arab. He's my baby, and he means the world to me. So yeah, if you know anyone, let me know!

meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You know if you were closer I'd take him in a heartbeat and he'd have the absolute best of everything and loads of kids to love him.

Wait, what about Jenks daughter? How far are you from Jenks? I heard once that they were looking for something she could show.. maybe.

I don't know where they are, lol. I'm just southwest of shreveport (it's right across the street). If that helps anyone as far as distance. Pm me if you want my adress/zipcode. And if it was someone I knew I'd consider a free lease, provided that they still insured him and such. Sorry if things are mispelled, lol, I'm typing from my blackberry ^_^

Actually not a single misspelled word. :lol:

Well if for some reason we move back to Louisiana (is *always* possible), I'll do it.

Thank you! ^_^ Gorgeous as he may be, he's also very very fat!

yay!!! she replied!

[quote]I might like to lease him and if I can't, I will put the word out.
I like him a lot. If I lease him he would be used for an intermediate lesson
horse and he would be jumping small jumps. I'll let you know.
