Tilly is a grade mare in her 20s looking for a new home!
I originally purchased Tilly for my younger cousin to ride, but unfortunately, she has turned out to be a little too much for her in the arena. She can be stubborn and needs someone who is confident and firm enough to correct her.
Her biggest issue in the arena is wanting to turn herself around and head toward the gate. She will push through the bit if allowed to get away with it. However, with an experienced rider who knows how to correct her, she is absolutely manageable. I have no issues riding her around the arena myself.
Where Tilly really shines is on the trails! She is happy to put her head down and mosey along. Sheβs crossed water, is traffic safe, and not much seems to faze her while out on the trail. I truly believe she would make someone a wonderful trail mount!
A few more things about Tilly:
* Loads great
* Stands well for the farrier
* Stands quietly to be groomed and tacked up
* Has experience crossing water
* Traffic safe
* Easygoing and relaxed on the trails
Her current Coggins expires October 29th, so she will need a new one pulled.
With winter approaching, I simply donβt have the extra time to put consistent rides on her while also working with my own project horses. Tilly hasnβt done anything wrong; she just isnβt the right fit for the type of riding we do.
I want to be completely upfront about her so she ends up in a home where she can be enjoyed and appreciated. I think she would be best suited for a confident, experienced rider looking for a laid-back trail horse rather than a beginner wanting an arena horse.
