Description

Merlin is a retired flat-shod Western Equitation show horse. He was abused, just as a matter of the type of training used. His "everyday" bit was a double broken twisted wire bit, although he was shown to me with a "tom thumb" that he completely ignored.
It became quite apparent once we got him home that his distrusted tack, and was sure all bits were going to hurt him.We've finally gotten through all that,
In the 2 years I've had him, we've become best friends. I've had knee surgery as well, and I'm beginning to lose the seat needed to ride him well.I'm getting older and he is just a bit too strong for me, so I'm sadly having to part with him.
His new rider must be experienced with Walkers, kind with your hands, understanding of a horse trained with fear as the major component of his education.Some dressage work would be a plus, as we use the half-halt more t han we use the reins.
Butchers need not respond. I know mot of you by now, so save us both the time.
