Breed: Paint
Bio: Zipper doesn't need an experienced rider, she has had kids on her before. I have not ridden her, although friends have. She has never been sick as long as I've had her. She does get protective over her grain and can be a little hard to catch, but she loads in a trailer and she's good for the farrier.
