Barn Name- Donni
Gender- gelding
Age-7
Breed- german warmblood
Color- bay
Temperament- 5
Personality- [1-2 paragraphs]
Jumpy, he is a looker and takes EVERYTHING in around him, ears constantly flickering as he desperatly tries to listen to his rider and watch out for the evil "monsters". If you get him focused and keep his mind on you and his task he is an absolute dream, stop him from looking and gain his complete trust and you are set for life. He was shown by the old owner, for some time and he did very well she had his respect and trust. He is abit of an odd ball on the lunge, something about excessive circle work bores him and makes for a very spooky ride. Change things up, do something new every time and he will go well. As long as he is focused and having to think about what he is doing all is well, he does well under pressure (as long as he is focused) and seems to shine at any challenge presented (once more as long as he is focused) Loose that focus and you better have a good seat, and be ready! On the ground where you are next to him, he really is a sweet guy. He loves his treats and is well behaved around other horses, such a little star as long as you keep him focused and challenged. For him repition is a bad idea!

When you see Allie riding him you can wonder why his temperament is a 6. Before he was imported something or someone scared him and he is very protective of his space. He can be very vicious, lashing out with his heals and trying to bite. It is hard to gain his trust but once you do he is very loyal. He is also very intelligent, making it easy or him to exploit your weaknesses. You you leave him the chance he will either strike out or just make a fool of yourself. Around Allie he shows a lot of respect and backs off if she tells him too. Otherwise he will push you around.
Any Show Experience?-
Very Little but more if you count his foal and stallions tests
If so, won any competitions?-
placed 3rd at his yearling tests. reserve champion at his stallion testings. Otherwise he has shown a bit in dressage with good placings and scores and he is training in jumping.
