She is a strong introvert.  Sierra requires lots of attention and soft slow training process. She is 16HH and weighs about 1048 lbs.  Even at the age of 5 she has retained her sweet innocence. She often romps and squeals like a foal when she is happy.

 

Sierra holds her emotions very deep and doesn't often display them. She is docile and is at the bottom of the herd pecking order.

 

Sierra has been healthy, except for a slight club foot which has improved over time and with proper hoofcare. She was forced into a fence post during Santa Ana winds in 2007 and tore open her left shoulder.  The vet quickly stitched her up and she healed well. However, she does have a scar. The injury has not hampered her ability to run and play with the other horses in open pasture.

 

Sierra will need a special home where she is given a lot of individual attention, loved and spoiled. She would be very lonely without other horses around to interact with. When left alone she can become withdrawn. Keeping her stimulated is healthy for her. She is quite affectionate when given total attention by her handler.

 

She is a beautiful girl and we are hoping for the right match for her soon. We wish to train her under saddle before the end of the year.
