About Bailey Bug
Bailey Bugs owner surrendered her to Bluebonnet when they could no longer care for her.
Many years before coming to Bluebonnet, Bailey Bug suffered a pelvis injury. It healed but she's not cleared for hard riding such as jumping, playdays, endurance, etc.

Evaluation and Training
Bailey Bug's foster reports that she has excellent ground manners. She cross ties and hard ties, enjoys grooming and bathing. Bailey Bug was trained to ride before coming to Bluebonnet and at one point she was used as a lesson horse. She didn't care for being a lesson horse, she prefers keeping the same 1-2 riders.
Her current foster home is riding her now. She said Bailey Bug will kick out if you put much leg pressure on her, so she's not for a novice. She has been vetted and no cause for the kicking out was identified.
Bailey Bug is looking for a home with a confident intermediate to experienced rider who can continue working with her. She's not available for jumping, playdays, or endurance. She could be a nice pleasure horse or trail horse for the right adopter.
