What level of horse are you comfortable handling:*

Beginner: Quiet disposition. Easy to handle on the ground and in the saddle. Friendly, predictable and reliable. A "been there done that" horse.
Intermediate: Potentially reactive and an independent thinker. Easy to handle on the ground - more challenging in the saddle. A willing to go forward horse that will likely want to negotiate direction or the task at times. May require additional training.
Advanced: May be either highly trained or very green. Horse is sometimes unpredictable in its behaviors and can be overreactive. Requires previous experience with training horses.
Trainer Required: Horse is unstarted or has had a traumatic past with humans leading to unpredictable and overreactive behaviors. Potential adopters for a horse with these characteristics needs to demonstrate a high level of skill and be able to problem solve.
