About Faith Rio

Faith Rio was rescued at auction and then turned out into a pasture. Faith was donated to Bluebonnet by her rescuer. She has a quiet personality, enjoys being near people, and really wants to please.

Evaluation and Training

Faith Rio didn't appear to have had much formal training when she arrived at Bluebonnet. Now she has all the basics down plus some! She loves to be groomed! She walks, trots, lopes, backs up, and sidepasses under saddle. She trailers quietly. She is learning the basic liberty skills. She can also do various obstacles, such as a teeter totter bridge, standing on a pedestal, and a rolling bridge, as well as walking over fairly large logs.

Faith Rio will make someone a wonderful trail or show horse!
