Evaluation and Training

He has draw-reign experience and the previous owner suspects he can pull a cart. He has been very tolerant of the kids, the four wheelers (electric) and all the energy that we have without spooking.

Mayo Neighs is easy to catch in small area but may take a little time when catching in a large pasture (unless you have a treat). Mayo Neighs can be caught and leads well with adults and children. Mayo Neighs loves food and prefers to eat alone or can be slightly food aggressive. Mayo Neigh’s has learned that hoof trims are not so bad and stands well for the farrier. Mayo has been ridden at a walk, trot in a round pen, arena, and open field. Mayo Neighs has started to canter a little bit in a large arena. He has been introduced to obstacles, trails, and other arenas. He is looking for a child to call his own.
