Disposition - Tinda is an absolute gem. She will try anything we ask. When she is asked to do something new, she thinks about it, and does her best to please. We are very picky about our children's mounts, and last year when our daughter was ready to move up from her pony, Tinda was the horse for her. They are a great team. She is a safe, sane, athletic partner for our daughter. We can't give a horse a greater complement than to put our childern on them.

Soundness - We have owned this mare for eight years and have had no poblems at all with her feet. She has been shod once as a three year old at a trainer's request. We sent her back a year ago for child proofing, and the trainer said not to bother shoeing her!

Versatility - Tinda is a wonderful trail horse. She has a great mind and very rarely spooks. She will stop and look at a unfamiliar object, but once she is comfortable she will continue right past it. She has a nice walk for trail riding. Our daughter is using Tinda for 4-H and she has been exposed to english, jumps, showing, and O-Mok-Sees which are western games such as barrels and pole bending. Tinda tackles it all with a cheerful and willing attitude.
