Description:

"Barney" The most gentle and kind hearted draft cross gelding you will ever find.
He rides, drives and tells no lies! Exceptionally honest, reliable, and sound in body and mind. The whole family can ride or drive him! He has been in the family since he was a 3-year-old. He has a huge resume
of work and experience; he has been handled with a kind and consistent hand his whole life and stays true no matter how many days he is in the pasture!

Barney has taken totally inexperienced riders on trail rides.
He has camped overnight and stands tied to a picket line all night.
He has been in parades from Arizona to Montana including five years in the huge Tucson Rodeo Parade.
He has been a prominent horse in pulling sleighs…both as a single and as a team.
He has been in feature films as a riding and driving horse…single, team and even a four up. He will truly show you "the way of the west".
He plays basketball and wiffle ball with the family.
Go on a picnic with him, a play day, start a young horse driving with Barney at his side…Barney will be that youngsters rock!
Keep him in a barn or pasture…he is very low maintenance, but he does enjoy the freedom of a pasture!
Barney is the kind of horse that will give you confidence. He will get you there safely and drama free. There is not another horse out there with this kind of proven consistency.
He has been with our family for 9 years and circumstances have changed for us…it is the only reason he is being offered.
