Beautiful, stunning, gorgeous horse!(didnt know which one to pick, he is all of that) How long did that trick take to teach? Impressive!

It was pretty easy really Maybe a hour. The horse has to trust you though. I have had this guy since he was 6 months old and he is now 6 1/2 years old. Everyone wants him. I could have sold him a lot ofd times but he will satay with me

Thanks for the nice comments

I forgot to ask, what breed is he?

He is Tennessee Walking Horse and Registered Spotted Saddle Horse. Thank you for your kind comments and yes I do love him. I will share this funny storry with you . We was trailriding in Pa . Chris Cox is the trainer whose methods i follow. I have met chris and had a White Autographed Chris Cox hat on. I had to stop and do a chore as we get older i seem to have to do more often. Well JW never leaves me in the pasture at home or any place else i go. He stays with me. Well I had JW's reins in my arm and i feel his teeth on the top of my head and he grabs teh chris cox hat and BOLTS away from me . My wife and a few other ladys were like 400 yards away doing there thing. He RUNS to her with my HAT in his mouth and goes up to her and DROPS it on the ground. I had no idea where he was heading. I was screaming for them to get him. We lall laughed about it afterwards but at the time i failed toi see the humor!!

Here is a video of me riding JW up to a dead elk in PA . I had the reins in one had and camera in the other hand. Someone on the road lied to me and told me the elk was DEAD !!!!
