Re: [RC] BLM horse perspective and attitudes long rant - heidi larson

I have a friend who is very picky conformationally and she's also seen "Cowboy" in person and LOVED him!!!  She was also impressed by his manners and demeanor.  I've seen some other kigers in person and the stallions I saw were also well mannered and well socialized.  (My Kiger Tiger, Donner (AKA Spirit), Kiger Ocho (I think that's his name) and another that lives in my neighborhood that is also stunning and sweet!)  Kiger Puma (he's a bit too chunky for me, but they are easy keepers.)

I still maintain, that the mustang I saw last summer in Santa Rosa Ca, at
Dressage
in the Wine Co., was every bit as well conformed, not to mention well
trained as
some of the $$$$ warmbloods. This would be Steens Vaquero (Cowboy), a 15.2h
grulla
kiger stallion (BLM) from the Steens Mtn. area. I got a good, up close look
at him and
was totally impressed with legs, feet and how he was put togeher and moved.
Disposition
mild mannered and cooperative. Was out in warmup area for hour, with many
other horses
(some doing runs to warm up-drill team)...went calmly on a loose rein.

Did an extremely hard dressage routine with advanced moves.....several years
of training....

Exceptinonal horse.
