Jimmy - Our new guy Sept 1 2012

Jimmy, home at Freedom Valley
Jim is a 12 yr old, 19 hand, Belgian gelding.  Well trained to drive double, he has pulled a variety of farm equipment, has pulled logs out of the bush, and was bought by his owners a yr ago to competitive pull.  He lacked the "spunk" required to pull, but is a quiet, gentle, patient, hardworking fellow.  Very easy to work around, picks up all of his feet nicely (currently shod, but they need to be removed as they are loose).  Jimmy does have a slight string halt in his bck right leg but is very sound, it is barely noticeable.   His adoption fee is currently $800 but will increase depending on time worked with him.   I do have pics of him being driven by his former owner and will post them asap.
