Bio: Rose was one of our best and most frequently used lesson horses, particularly for young and inexperienced riders. Calm and dependable, she had the uncanny ability to "figure out" what she was supposed to do, even when her rider gave her conflicting signals. Riders loved her smooth lope and lovely palomino color. Rose passed away in November 2011 at the age of 21.
