Hey there, I go by Zip, but Kelly likes to call me Zip the Wonder Horse. I'm a wonderfully plain chestnut gelding with many talents.
I've worked with Kelly for about five years now, and I'm a much different horse now then I used to be! When I first met Kelly I was very nervous and unsure of my job. But since working with her, I have built a lot more confidence in myself and love my time in the arena when Kelly is standing in the middle of my circle. Sometimes I get a little distracted and I might have a small dose of A.D.D., so I require strong leadership from my rider.
I've had some pretty fun adventures over the last couple of years. I've gotten the chance to show off my spots and skills at a lot of horse shows, winning ribbons of all colors. I particularly like to show off in Showmanship and this year have been rocking out in Western Pleasure with my young rider. I've also gotten the chance to extend out for Hunt Seat and float around a dressage ring. I was even the star demonstrator horse for the World-Famous Clinician Richard Shrake at the MSU Stallion Expo a few years ago. Even though I'm kind of an "Old Dog", Kelly is always trying to teach me new tricks. I'm like a fine wine, I just keep getting better with age!
