My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Queenie

Queenie (aka Nizhoni) is that rare horse which is calm by nature, gentle, and forgiving of human missteps. She is a lovely little mare with a sweet face and a sweet demeanor. She does not have a mean bone in her body. Queenie appreciates being treated with respect; both on the ground and in the saddle. She is easy and sensitive to ride. She has a good feel for what the rider wants and is willing to give that, provided the rider knows what he/she wants and can clearly convey that. In her training so far she has been mainly ridden in arena and round-pen at walk & trot, as well as out on walkabouts. Unless spooked or provoked she has no great desire to run fast. We ride her in a snaffle bit and she yields at the poll when asked gently. However, if the rider gets rough or hard handed she will brace in resistance and shake her head. Queenie will make an intermediate rider a real nice trail horse. She was running with a band of wild horses when captured, although she has some obvious domestic breeding. We estimate her to be about 8 years old, about 15 HH and about 900 lbs. Queenie is currently in the “Chance For A Lifetime” Program and being shown to prospective adopters by Erica Hess and Joost Lammers at For the Heart of the Horses Ranch in Santa Fe.
