Often mistaken for a Connemara or GRP, Dixie is a unique Welsh x Shagya warmblood mare! Stunning smoky black with a huge hourglass shaped blaze! She grabs all of the attention at shows! Well schooled on the flat, she's easy to bend around your leg, leg yields, turns on the forehand, haunches, backs and is schooling shoulder in and haunches in. She loves the preciseness of dressage and has the makings of an upper level dressage horse. Her gaits are super smooth and easy to sit! Can have her own motor so best with a balanced rider that can use their seat to rate her tempo. Over fences she's a blast to jump! Not looky, very point and shoot, she has the braveness and tactfulness for an eventer and the class to win in the hunters. Free jumped to 3’6” and schooling 2’3”. Working on rhythm but has scope to spare. A blast to take XC! Great power to her haunches, she does walk to canter transitions easily and is schooling changes. Trail rides and hacks out like a dream! Happy to lead or follow. Easy to load and haul, calm and easy as pie in new places. Not dramatic or marish, she’s a TOTAL sweetheart! A favorite of the barn and visitors, she’s a snuggler and loves to put her nose on your shoulder! Will always gravitate toward you for cuddles, ear rubs and just being by your side without being pushy. Easy for vet, farrier, bathes, clips, vacuums, fly sprays, ties, cross ties etc, super easy on the ground and just a love bug! Happy to give pony rides and bareback rides! She’s a homebred so I know her inside and out! Super healthy and sound, clean legs, barefoot, no issues or maintenance. Super prospect for anything you want to do with her and in a few years will be a phenomenal kids mount. Started at 4yo and carefully brought along. Can sit for an extended amount of time, be pulled out of the pasture, hop on and go with zero prep. When showing, best if in a 4-5 week schedule so she’s on her game. UTD on everything including dental. Amazing home is a must for this incredibly unique girl! $25,000
