Mr. Absolutely steal your heart, Roscoe!
This pony is every parents dream, an old soul, the ultimate beginner pony and a reliable confidence builder. Roscoe has been our kids best pal mainly our youngest (Townes who is 3) has claimed him for every single thing we do, probably because Roscoe will stand at the gate and just beg to be caught and then happily follows Townes anywhere he chooses to go.
Roscoe is a staple at SKC no matter where we go he is along for the ride. He is the go to for Townes, that child hits the ground running to go ride and do cowboy things aboard Roscoe!! It is a daily occurrence for Townes and Roscoe to rope the dummy and chase the steers for hours! It’s also not uncommon to catch Townes dragging Roscoe into his room to show him his trucks. When I tell you he goes anywhere Townes asks him to, it’s seriously everywhere!!!
Roscoe is a perfect gentleman to brush, bathe, saddle and will stand for hours to be groomed then tolerants whatever games the kids come up with! His manners are unmatched! Roscoe is also broke to drive and is the best to hook up and drive through town for the kids. He’s quiet in town around all the traffic, chaos, machinery, semi’s, dogs, fireworks you name it he’s seen it and pays it no mind. Our children have rode him bareback, double, triple, bridle-less, and English.. He is versatile, easy, ALWAYS so willing and truly just wants to please. Roscoe’s best quality is his personality and his kind demeanor. He truly loves his children and his job and that’s such a rare find in a pony!
Roscoe has an easy walk and trot they’re smooth and easy to sit. He stops great, side passes both ways, and lopes cute circles. Roscoe guides around light and soft making him ideal for the little kids. He has spent countless days pushing the roping steers up the return alley and roping the dummy and the sled. Saylor and Townes have also done every play day event known to mankind on this pony! Barrels, poles, goats, key hole, ribbon race, even egg and spoon. Townes started on Roscoe in the lead line and graduated on up to the 6 and under class. Saylor has even Carried the American Flag on Roscoe! This adorable pony has taken the best care of the kids and taught Townes so much.
Roscoe has been many many miles out on big country. He crosses water, rocky terrain, will safely travel down steep inclines and through any kind of brush. He is always careful with his footfall and takes the best care of his rider. He’s seen all the wildlife and is unfazed. He will also ride off completely alone or stay right with the group it does not matter to him.
This is a pony that our children have made so many memories with and he’s ready to make him with the next family!
