Evaluation and Training

Marlo was transferred from another organization so he could have an opportunity to find his forever home. He is extremely smart, but cautious. He is not aggressive, just skittish and has trust issues. After some trust is established, he will stand for bathing, follow with lead rope, halter-broke, and raise his feet. He is learning to be caught and standing still. He wants to learn and trust everyone.

Marlo picks up all four feet, will load in anything, stands for baths, stands for farrier, stands to be saddled, takes a bit perfectly, soft in the mouth. He can be pushy under the saddle, but his trainer will work through it. He is at the bottom of the herd. He is a BLAST to ride and to be around!
