Draft X Gelding - $9,500 (Duncannon)
QR Code Link to This Post
I have owned him since he was a weanling, and know his breeder personally.
As of April 2026, up to date on all vaccines, annual exams, dental, farrier, deworming. Records can be transferred to new owner. Goes barefoot with no issues. Has big solid feet!
He was lightly started at 3 years old, then allowed to sit and fully grow for long term health development as a draft x, as recommended by the vet. He is ready to be started now! He is a beautiful mover, and very responsive to training. Lunges, round pens, knows “pick me up” at the mounting block, lightly started with liberty training last summer and did wonderful! Once he bonds with you, he just wants to make you happy! Pastures well with geldings, mares, and currently is best friends with a donkey. Kind to all animals…goats, chickens, dogs, cats. He can free range our farm when we are outside and will come in when called. First to greet you at the gate, puppy dog type. Extremely food motivated. Stands for vet and farrier, cross ties, trailers well (we hauled him everywhere with us when he was little to get him exposure…he even regularly went to the ice cream shop!), takes a blanket, saddle, bridle. Currently lives outside 24/7, but stalls well, and keeps his area clean! He’s had a great foundation, and is ready to move on to training for his future career. I can see him excelling in numerous disciplines.
Has been fed Triple Crown Balancer Gold to maintain nutrition since he turned 2, but gets fat off air and does not require any grain to maintain weight. Very inexpensive, easy keep!
Negatives: He can be pushy at first, but will respect a dominant owner. I personally have zero issues with him whatsoever, but he will test you at first. Training with treats is not recommended, as he becomes obsessed. Past history of sweet itch during fly season, but last year he didn’t seem bothered and this year, we (after vet consultation) are considering him clear as he has zero signs of allergies. Small cataracts since he was a colt, vet says no changes noted and this should not affect anything as it’s not an unusual condition.
Only selling due to my personal health condition which prohibits me from riding. He’s too good of a horse to sit as a pasture pet for the rest of his life and he’s ready to restart training!
Contact me if you have serious interest only. I do not have time for tire kickers! NO, you cannot test ride him, as stated, he needs restarted…I’m not putting him or you in an unprepared situation! No exceptions. You may ground work him in my round pen or arena to get a feel of his capabilities. No trials. Good home only. Vet references will be required before sale.
Located in Duncannon PA, approximately 25 minutes from downtown Harrisburg.
