Chickenpox -The Kind That Takes Care of Everyone• 11-Year-Old 15.1 hand Appaloosa Gelding There’s just something special about Chickenpox. With his flashy Appaloosa spots, kind eye, and gentle expression, he’s the horse people notice the moment he steps off the trailer. But what you’ll remember most is how he makes you feel — safe, confident, and quietly cared for. He’s a true saint with the biggest heart. He’s helped beginners discover what a good horse is supposed to feel like under them, while giving seasoned riders that solid, trustworthy partner they can count on every single time. He’s taken nervous riders out on their first cattle-moving trip and carried them through it with such calm confidence that they came back smiling and wanting to do it again. He turns with the slightest touch, yields softly to leg pressure, and has that slow, smooth lope that’s pure joy to sit. No matter your experience level, he takes care of you every step of the way. In the arena he’s soft, responsive, and fun to ride. Neck reins, picks up both leads, nice stop, backs sweetly, and rides with confidence. He’s been branded on and handles ranch work like the pro he is. Out on the trail he’s pure peace. Water, bridges, logs, steep hills, brush, traffic, bikes, dogs, wildlife — he just sighs and goes on. Flags, tarps, obstacles? He couldn’t care less. Alone or in a group, he lets you relax and actually enjoy the ride. On the ranch he’s done it all — gathering cattle, sorting pairs, checking fences, and the everyday jobs that shape a rock-solid horse. Nothing phases him. On the ground he’s the same easygoing guy: easy to catch, stands patiently for saddling, bathing, grooming, clipping, farrier work, and loading. He hauls great and gets along with everyone. Chickenpox has been one of those horses that worms his way into your heart. He’s the kind you trust with your family, brag about to your friends. The sort that becomes family and stays in your stories for years. Horses with his kind mind, experience, and flashy looks are rare, and we’ve been lucky to have him. Located at Longhorn Ranch Paicines, California Dina • 831•537•1915 Shipping available nationwide with reputable haulers. We offer FaceTime chats to meet him and you’re always welcome to come meet him in person. One ride is all it takes to feel just how special he really is.
