★★ DAHLIA ★★ Registered as MMB Peppys San Hixs | 3-Year-Old Liver Chestnut Mare | Kind-Hearted, Versatile, and Unshakably Trustworthy. Dahlia is a gorgeous 3-year-old liver chestnut mare with a shining coat, a calm mind, and an incredibly generous heart. This young mare is a standout not only for her eye-catching color and conformation but for her steady disposition, remarkable trainability, and sweet-natured personality. She’s the kind of horse that builds confidence in her rider, no matter their age or experience. From the ground up, Dahlia has been an absolute pleasure to develop. She’s intelligent, willing, and has the demeanor of a horse well beyond her years. She meets you at the gate every morning with a soft eye and a friendly attitude, eager for attention and connection. She stands quietly to be brushed and bathed, loads and unloads easily, and maintains excellent ground manners in all settings. Dahlia enjoys the grooming process and thrives on human interaction, making her a true barn favorite with her puppy-dog presence. She knows an impressive set of groundwork maneuvers, including side passing to and away from the handler, spinning on cue, lunging both on and off the lead, and even following you freely with no halter or rope. She also carries herself with natural rhythm and softness, and is happy to learn and engage. Under saddle, Dahlia has been started in western pleasure and is showing excellent promise. She has a beautifully collected jog and a naturally slow, balanced lope. She responds softly to cues, has a clean backup and stop, and has begun work on rollbacks and sliding stops. She’s also had a rope swung off her and has been introduced to moving cattle — always showing composure and curiosity. She is light in the bridle and confident in new settings. Dahlia has also spent time in an English saddle and has gone over cavalettis with impressive poise and awareness. Her body control and natural cadence give her the foundation to develop into a lovely all-around prospect for multiple disciplines. While she excels in the arena, Dahlia truly comes to life on the trail. She’s as brave as she is reliable, confidently riding out alone or with a group. She’s been exposed to town traffic, barking dogs, passing bikes, strollers, runners, and even loud trains — all handled with the same calm demeanor. She’s been taken to the gas station in just a halter and led the way without hesitation. Her confidence outdoors makes her an ideal mountain or trail partner, and she’s been trusted with riders of all levels, including young lesson students. One of our youngest riders even took her out alone bareback — a true testament to her gentle and grounded nature. Dahlia has also been introduced to a wide variety of obstacle and desensitization work. She’ll carry a flag, drag a tarp, walk over tarps, push a ball, and tackle anything you point her at. She’s solid, thinking, and incredibly safe. This is one of the most trustworthy and unshaken young mares we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She’s dependable, affectionate, and already has the qualities of a lifelong partner. Whether you’re looking for a calm trail mount, a foundation for western or English performance, or a family-safe horse with personality and heart, Dahlia is the total package. Watch her extensive video to see her in action and feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a time to meet her. She’s truly a special one.
