A true "been there, done that" type, Chip's resume is impressive. From working feedlots with 10,000 head, to parades and fun shows in the city, or pulling the sleigh on Christmas, to carrying young children around as they learn to ride... or, becoming a rock-solid head horse under an NFR qualifying team roper - Chip really has done it all! Go on trails, go show, jump, head a few steers, ride western or english, bareback and bridleless, forwards, backwards, you name it, he'll do it! Above all, Chip is SAFE!
Plus, Chip has the fun tricks that everyone loves: smile, bow, lay down, play ball. You can shoot off him, crack a bullwhip, carry a flag and more. A perfect gentleman, he will slide up to the mounting block for you to get on and stands like a rock while you do so.
With plenty of experience driving, he is easy to harness and hitch with a nice steady trot. Around the barn, he is easy to handle, and has always been sound, easy to keep, and kept up to date on all care. He'll happily ground tie for days while you give him a bath, brush him, braid his mane, etc. He loves to be loved, and is often first to the gate and last to leave.
Please come meet and try him before the sale, you'll be glad you did! This exceptional gelding will not disappoint! Don't hesitate to give me a call if Chip sounds like the horse you've been looking for.
