14.3 HH

With a jog you can ride for days and ranch horse experience, Maui combines comfort and real world experience in a beautiful buckskin package!

A stellar work ethic and willing attitude make him a fun horse to spend your time with! Whether it’s daily or whenever time allows, Maui appreciates all the attention you can give him and never takes it for granted. He can take time off and rides off without any trouble.

Used on a South Dakota ranch for 5 years, Maui is in his happy place when he’s in God’s country. Sure footed, confident alone and steady, he is a treat to ride outside. Used on all ranch duties, he can recognize a full day’s work and knows how to pace himself. He is comfortable in a herd of cattle and carries himself confidently amongst the commotion.

We took him to his first horse show this spring and were blown away with how he adapted to the new environment. By the first afternoon he was ground tying in the corner taking a nap, waiting for his turn in the ring. From conformation, to ranch pleasure and ranch riding, he acted like a seasoned pro. Being shown by youth and adult riders, he navigated the busy ring and chaos with ease. At the end of the weekend he was the Reserve High Point Youth Ranch Horse against tough competition!

He picks you up on the mounting block, stands on the pedestal and crosses the tarp with ease. Crossing bridges, or water, scaling rough country or picking your way through the timber, Maui stays sensible.

Turned out with other horses he blends in beautifully, he is polite and patient. His big brown eyes just make you melt, there’s a reason we are only his third owner, horses like him are easy to have around. He is excellent for all the normal maintenance like shoeing, vaccinating and deworming.

At 14.3 he’s an easy size to be around, and get on! With plenty of foot and bone he will stay sound and hold up with no issue.

Maui is a kind hearted horse with genuine try that is hard to find! Please reach out with any questions about this sweet horse, we’d be happy to visit about him.

A lifelong dedication to building reliable, family-friendly horses has been a driving force for Megan, and this tradition is now being carried on by her daughter, Teagan. Their sincere connections with both their horses and their customers are evident in everything they do.

Megan’s love for horses began at just three years old and has shaped her entire life. Megan and her husband, Andy, are excited to see their children, Wyatt and Teagan, share the same passion for horses. Together, the family owns and operates Hansen Performance Horses, where they focus on training well-rounded horses. Their horses are exposed to a variety of disciplines, from team roping to trail riding, ranching, and even jumping. It’s also common for them to compete at ranch horse shows, where Teagan proudly won her first buckle!

Megan and Teagan are both committed to understanding each horse's unique strengths and personality. Through individualized training, they ensure that every horse is represented honestly and matched with the right person.
