About: Sonny Hi I'm Sonny, my full name is Sonny's Freedom Spirit, but that's a little too long to say so just call me Sonny. I live in Las Vegas, NV which is really neat because I can see all the lights and hotels (and the airport) from my barn. I live with my friend Red, an American Paint Horse and three doggies. Red used to be a police horse here in Vegas and doesn't seem scared of anything, he was even ridden down the strip, so he really makes me feel safe.
I am a very tall, 17hh, black, Tennessee Walker, though some people have mistaken me for a Thoroughbred or Warmblood. I can be a tad clumsy at times (No laughing, I'm working on it). My trainer says I'm pretty smart and try really hard, I just don't have the best coordination at times. We've been doing a lot of shoulder in and shoulder out and basic body awareness exercises to help me recognize where my feet are and it seems to be helping.
As you see above, my favorite food is rootbeer flavored popsicles. I find them very refreshing, especially during the summers here in Vegas. I've never been known to turn down a good apple or carrot either. And once I even took a sip out of grandma's coffee, it was very yummy, though not quite as good as a rootbeer popsicle.
Anyway, I'm really glad and would like to thank you for stopping by and taking time to read about me.
Activities: I'm still in training right now, I have wonderful John Lyons trainer whose helping me learn my ground and under saddle manners. Eventually I'm going to be a trail horse and my mom tells me that I might do some showing one day. Unfortunately where we live there isn't a lot of gaited horse shows, so for now I'm just learning what I can and having fun.
