Evaluation and Training

Rico is a sweet older man. He follows you like a puppy dog and is easy to catch. He likes grooming but not baths. He had some dental issues but is on a great feeding program and he does not eat hay. He loads in the trailers and picks up all 4 feet. He likes to talk walks down the road and does not spook easily. He would make a perfect prancing pony for anyone's parade. Rico is also learning how to drive.
