CODY'S WILD PEP
"ROCKY"

*** SOLD ***

DOB:  MARCH 07 2005       

Color:  SOLID DARK BLACK, NO MARKINGS

 Approximately 15 Hands and 900 lbs

Rocky is a very handsome solid black gelding quarter horse born on March 07, 2005.  He is halter broke.  He is led using a lead line without pulling. He also is able to be tied and groomed and loves attention.

 

Rocky has had a saddle on and lunged with it on with absolutely no problems.  He has not had a person in the saddle.  We have only done ground work with him.  But he is definitely ready to be trained!

Rocky is bred from an excellent bloodline and is AQHA registered. You can find his full bloodline at http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/codys+wild+pep. I highlighted some of the bloodline below including THREE BARS, KING, POCO BUENO, MR. TAILWIND, and JOE HANCOCK. He would be great for performance, halter, cutting, reining, etc. 

Rocky truly wants to please and needs someone to train him how to perform.  He is quick, smart, cautious and learns quickly.  He is ready to learn and be loved.  


Medically he is sound. He was gelded last fall and has had his wolf teeth removed.  He has a negative Coggins from last summer (2007) and has been vaccinated this spring for the following:

  • Tetanus
  • East / West Encephalomyelitis
  • Influenza
  • Rhinopneumonitis (rhino)
  • West Nile
  • Rabies

He is halter broke.  He approaches willingly in the pasture or stall to put on his halter.  He is led using a lead line without pulling. He also is able to be tied and groomed.  He is good with his hooves being picked out.  He has a wonderful calm and curious head about him.     He is ready to begin his ground work and could be trained to your specialty!
