Lot 3 JMS Spike 2020 Color Registered ApHC Gelding

Description:

Spike is a one-of-a-kind 6-year-old, 14.2 hand Appaloosa gelding who is every bit as unique as each and every one of his spots. Packed with personality, talent, and a tremendous work ethic, Spike is the kind of horse that turns heads wherever he goes and leaves a lasting impression on everyone who rides him.

Fancy broke and exceptionally athletic, Spike has all the buttons you could ask for. He walks, trots, and lopes with ease, carries himself beautifully, and responds willingly to his rider. He has a soft face, smooth transitions, an easy stop, backs willingly, side passes, and is simply fun to ride. He combines responsiveness with a kind, people-oriented nature that makes him a joy to have around the barn.

When it comes to cattle, Spike truly shines. He has a natural feel for a cow, a ton of grit, and absolutely loves his job. He'll pin his ears, get after one, and shows the kind of determination and athletic ability that could make him an outstanding little heel horse. Quick-footed, smart, and honest, he has all the ingredients to excel in a performance home while still being enjoyable for everyday riding.

Out on the trail, Spike is confident, dependable, and eager to go wherever you point him. He handles rough terrain, water crossings, bridges, brush, and natural obstacles with ease. He has all the fun party tricks too—working quietly with tarps, flags, balls, and sleds, side passing to the mounting block, and laying down on cue. Nothing seems to bother this gelding, and he takes new experiences in stride.

Spike is easy to catch, loves people, and genuinely wants to be your partner. He meets you at the gate, enjoys attention, and brings the same willing attitude to work every single day. Whether you're looking for a competitive little ranch horse, a future heel prospect, a trustworthy trail companion, or simply a unique horse with a huge personality, Spike offers an exceptional combination of talent, heart, and versatility that is difficult to find.

Spike is up to date on dental, chiropractic care, farrier care, worming, and coggins/health.
