Hello Gaye,
Rembrandt continues to adjust well to his new job...I have been
ramping him
up the past few weeks to higher visitation/sensory areas of our park and
city environs, with a stronger
horse. Most days he does well with some
quick episodes of "jitteriness", but overall so far so good for his
age and
amount of time/training he has gotten.
I am hoping this last month of his trial period, any "jittery"
episodes are
few and far between......will be working/training him in solo patrol and
flag work and see how he responds
Attached are some more photos.
Hello Gaye,
Update on Rembrandt...he
is doing well...I have been easing him into patrol
duties over the past few weeks and shows improvement every ride. So
far so
good and I am happy with his progress...Seems like he has not been exposed
to various objects and things
out and about, but after proper handling and
exposure he quickly adapts to his new environment....we hope it continues
that way...
Attached are a few photos...
Hope all is well with you,
Rembrandt is on trial with the San Francisco Park Police for
the next 3 months

Rembrandt is big,
brown and made to last. This gorgeous 4 year old gelding is gentle, good on trails and would make a nice western or english
horse. He is sensible and athletic, calm and willing.
If
you know how to ride, then you can truly appreciate what he has to offer. He rides calmly alone or with other horses on the
trail, will move the cows, open and close the gates, good with traffic, tractors, bikes and dogs, surefooted in the hills
and nonspooky. He goes thru water and truly enjoys exploring the trails.
In the arena he tries to please, he will move out like a dressage horse, or do a nice slow jog like a western
horse, you can direct rein or neck rein in the arena, but you do need to know how to use you legs and seat to have him perform
his best for you. He has nice transitions, great stop, leg yields, sidepasses and moves his shoulder or hip quite nicely,
he will bend nicely around your leg and soon will be starting lead changes.
He has been under saddle for a year, never lame, no history of illness, well cared for all his life, good ground
manners, crossties, ground ties, good with farrier and vet, clips and trailers, all with ease, don't miss your chance
to own a well broke youngster and have fun for years to come. This gelding is versatile enough to do it all and even pack
some of your friends or family around. He has been shown in Halter previously and has been ridden at the show grounds,
but he has not been shown undersaddle.
If
you do not get a reply from me within 72 hours, please be sure to give me a call.
The pictures below are of his Sire CR Pages Legacy and his Dam No Time For Tears, CR Pages Legacy,
offspring have been stamped with his great disposition, conformation, athletic ability, and versatility. They have gone on
to show and win in english, hunter, dressage, trail, working cow horse and western pleasure.
