Stars and Stripes is a registered Rocky Mountain Horse sired by Hersheys Pinnacle and his dam is a mare that is one of my foundation mares that I bought years ago, Ashleys Mountain Fire. Due to the fact he is very unspooky and not bothered by much at all his demeanor is perfect for a trail riding horse or a horse to ride around the neighborhood. I sent him to a friend of mine in the mountains of eastern Kentucky for a couple months and asked him to put time on him through his backroads, hollers, spend a ton of time in the woods, and did he do an excellent job! His training started right here on the farm as a baby (videos below) and has continued his training here for the summer. Even though he's not an old horse his mindset, natural nature, years of handling and now riding experience have allowed him to become one of the best trail riding horses in the barn. Not a hyper horse but not one that you need to kick constantly to keep going, would definitely be worth a look if your budget is lower but you're still wanting sane, sound, and easily gaited.
