SHEZA PEPPERED SANTE – 2014 AQHA Sorrel Mare x The Peppered Kid x Kid Clus Shadow out of Sheza Santee Kid x VR Kid Santee
15hh mare. Josie was started as a three year old and has been very consistently ridden since. She has been to the mountains 3 times a year EVERY year since she was 4 averaging 300km of mountain riding per summer. She’s crossed dozens of rivers and creeks, maneuvered bog and mud with ease, and climbed mountain tops many times. She stands perfect at the highline or hitching rail. Has been hot shod pretty much every year from snow off to snow on and stands well for farrier. Josie has been used in fun local gymkhanas and will do pretty much all the events easy and quiet. She’s been ridden to town for slurpies and down the highways. She has been used extensively on trails and through the bush. Josie has also been used for skijoring and thoroughly enjoyed it. She has also had a lot of box work and been used on the heelomatic and on live cattle. She is currently doing well with me learning how to breakaway. With some finishing work she would make a great little high school rodeo horse for a confident knowledgeable teenager. I have hauled her to Canadian Cowboy Challenges where she tackled all the obstacles with curiosity and confidence. And placed top 3 in her category. Josie lives in a mixed herd of mares and geldings and everything from 28” minis to 17.2hh drafts. She sits mid herd. I bred her as a 7 year old (to a perlino stallion). She caught immediately and carried full term all while being ridden up to snow fall of that year. She foaled and cleaned on her own. Buckskin foal. I use Josie often to pony my young horses and she will pull into the breast collar and give me all she’s got. She drags logs, opens gates, side passes and has all her gates. I have used her on a couple of cattle drives. She did ok, but due to her competitive nature she got excited when other horses would race past her. However, if I needed to her to get after a cow, there was no hesitation. I can ride her out by herself. No issues. Not herd bound. Josie is easy to catch. Stands all day at the rail. No halter pull. She loves people and attention and is sweet around my kids on the ground. Josie isn’t marish when cycling. And can be easily ridden through her cycle. Josie has been always kept up to date with her feet, deworming and teeth. She has 4 white socks and so requires an 8 week trim program to maintain her pink feet. I have owned her pushing 10 years and she has NEVER been lame or had any injuries. She’s never had injections or needed a vet other than for regular dental work. No scars. Josie definitely requires a KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EXPERIENCED rider ONLY. She is not for the faint of heart and requires a firm but fair handle. She is strong and very competitive and she can be spicy. She isn’t dirty but can have a very competitive attitude under saddle. Please, if you are new to riding, green, grandma or looking for a husband horse, Josie is not for you.I would be very happy to chat over the phone to discuss this with anyone interested. As well, I would be 100% happy to haul her to an indoor for people to test ride. She’s currently fit and being used. VIDEO: https://youtu.be/XYejpeAkeMY?feature=shared FMI: 780-878-1515. Coggins.
