Murphy

You are in search of a Family/Husband/Wife/Grandma safe horse? Then Murphy is the one for you!

Murphy is an approx 16 year old Belgian gelding. He stands 17.2 hands tall and is very laid back. He is a super sweet boy. Slow and steady, Perfect confidence builder. He’s looking to be someone’s friend. He absolutely loves attention and he loves treats

Under Saddle, Murphy is extremely comfortable and easy to ride. He rides western, English and bareback. He is the definition of simple and safe. He will Walk/Trot/Lope but he definitely prefers to Walk. He will lope but with encouragement. Definitely has more whoa than go.

On the trail, Murphy is a fantastic trail horse. He will lead, follow, or ride in the middle of the group. He has never acted Barn or Buddy sour with us. He is absolutely not spooky. Nothing seems to phase him and he never disappoints, no matter where we take him for a ride! Murphy will easily cross roads, water, bridges, and anything else that you may come across. He is safe around traffic, farm machinery, ATV’s etc.

In the barn, Murphy is a gentleman. He loves being handled, groomed, tacked up, etc. and he loves being cuddled, and loved on. He stands on the crossties or single ties, and has no bad habits in or out of the barn. He is happy living inside or out, it makes no difference to him. When he is in the pasture he goes in a mixed herd of mares and geldings. He minds his own business and is overall a pleasure to have in the barn. This gelding has never been pushy with us on the ground and has always been good for our Vet and Farrier.

He is suppose to broke to drive single and double but we never hitched him.

Murphy passed his vet exam and is ready for his new home. We know that he still needs to fill out some more but he’s on the right track.

Murphy will make a great addition to any family.
