[ShayW]

Reg 17hh chestnut tobino paint gelding for sale or trade. RIP has seen and done it all! He has shown in dressage, show jumping up to 4 1/2 feet, been ridden in the mountains, through rivers, has jumped cross country as well as packed flags at rodeos. He can be ridden english, western or bareback and neck reins as well as direct reins. You can take this horse any way you want. Will consider trades on a bomb proof well broke Quarter Horse that can be used in breakaway roping.
Will consider trades, partial trades, or cash...let me know what you have to offer!

Hello there,

How old is your paint gelding and I might have a horse to trade. How far from Edmonton are you.....

Thanks
Kim

Hello...he is 13 years old. I am just south west of Calgary about 15 minutes. What is your horse like?

[Kim Hickson]

Hi there,
Well she is a 10 year old OH mare. She is 15.3hh, sorrel with a huge white face and a small snip of white on the back foot. She is bred to run, covers ground quick and can run, she is quick and very athletic. Neck reins and direct reins as well. She is really level headed and quiet, has exceptional ground manners, loads, ties, clips and bathes, is great for farrier.
She has had 3 months barrel training in Arizona with Kristy White, and was patterened all last summer, has been rode all winter when weather cooperates. She has had ropes thrown off of her and did not seem to mind. Loves cows. Has basic reining training.
Selling because she needs a job, would be suitable for an advanced intermediate.
Why are you selling your guy and how much are you asking for him.....
I am about an hour nw of Edmonton.

Im selling him because, he also needs a job. Im a barrel racer, and I don't think he is suitalbe for it. hes just too good a horse to stand out in my pasture. Right now he is away being tried out for a pick up horse, but Im not sure how that will pan out. Im asking $6000 for him, but would definatley look into the trade. Keep me posted...I will email you some pictures if you send me your email address. Do you ride English or Western?

[Kim Hickson]

Hello there,

What a small world, I am a barrel racer too. I bought ''Sugar'' with the intentions of getting back into it, but with 2 little kids, and riding lessons just getting going, I don't have the time to take her to any jackpots or anything. She has been to a few indoor arenas and did just fine. She definatley has the talent and athletisim to take you places. She has the heart and the drive to be a great barrel horse. I would prefer that she go to someone that is going to take her to her potential. Just seen the pictures of Rip, wow he's beautiful. I have always loved paints, my family used to raise paints.
Would you say that Rip is suitable for intermediate riders in a controlled enviroment..... I will send you a picture of Sugar.

[ShayW]

I would say he is suitable for that for sure. He can test a rider, but as long as they have the confidence to go ahead on him, then it will work. He is very smart, and likes to test people...don't get me wrong, never, ever would he hurt anyone, he is a gentle giant.
Perhaps if you told me what you wanted to use him for mainly, I could tell u more about what hes like...I have so many stories on this horse, although I havent had him for long.
If u were to sell your mare, what would you be asking for in price? And did I send you my email?

[Kim Hickson]

Hi there,
Well I would mainly use him for lessons, trails and maybe the odd gymkhana if I could get there. He would definatley have a job here, and would be loved and well cared for.
I did get your email, I sent you one back as well.
We could trade strait across, if that works for you!
When did you get him

[ShayW]

I'll email u to your personal email
