I sure like him. It was cold when we picked him up. About 50 degrees. I got a 12 ft goose neck. Its a little to small but we use it for haulin horses and cowdogs in. We can put 4 horses and there comforitble with dogs runnin at there feet. I had a planket for him for the wind chill and he was fine. I turnt him in with a old kids mare and a bred, in the money barrel racein mare we cowhunt. He troted over to show them his prudenials. I have all ideays I'll ride him after church. I might look at a cow or 2. I feal santy has come late for me. Lol! I'll get some pics of the gates he has. I hear some quarter horse people dont like a gated horse. I think it next to banana puddin. My new corrienta, rosebud and vine will be in fri. Yall? Am I actin like a kid or what? I bet yall are gettin a kick off my shopin spree. Well I have a ossy, driz a bone slicker ready. I'll need a newbreast collor and a feither lite pad. A new ranch rope. And be able to tie my whip on the other side of the rope. Then I need to rig a holster for a little colt wheel gun to kill snakes and blister a unrully cowdog with rat shot

I dumped him a pasture with a bred mare and a old mare saturday. I wonted to get on him today. He caught up with a peanut buter cracker. Trey saddled him and rode him a little. I don't have the strength to pull up on him so I got on the tail gate and got on him. He aint wonted to leave them mares so I got a little worryed with him and went back. He's way bigger than the cracker filly I been ridein. Seams like he just needs ridein workin cattle. My buddy will take him dayworkin later this week and get a better handle on him. As far as the paso, its said they were bred out of these horses. There the old spanish horses the were brung here in the 1500's. There tuff as nails and hold up real good. There gate makes them a pleasure coverin lots of country. They will give all they have but are lackin in size. But thisin is 15.1 hands. I think I can raise some good cowhorses of him.

He reminds me of the mustangs Grandpa rode out here on the desert. Smaller than quarter horses and built different but sure footed, cowy and ya still had plenty of horse under ya at days end. Enjoy yourself! Very Happy

They carry mostly the same genitics the spanish mustangs have. I've rode then all over honduras, costa rica and nicrauga. They still ride the old mcelin saddles down there. The ones they used in the war between the states. I could not ride then little saddles long. I wound up takein my own and left it there. No tellin who's ridein it now. Some old costa rican vacarro I recon.
