Brego is a 8 year-old Percheron gelding of unknown breeding. I purchased him as a 4 year-old without papers to be a back-country trail horse. As he has grown up the last couple of years, he has shown me that he has some pretty amazing talent and athleticism I had not understood in a "heavy draft" breed before. And... he's darn good looking!
I've been riding horses since I was five, mostly hunters. I was the proud owner of an Arabian gelding who lived with my family from the time I was 5 until he died in December of 2005 at the age of 27. I competed hunters through college on a Thoroughbred mare and in IHSA before I went abroad to study. When I returned to the states, I took a few years off before I bought a Percheron for trail riding. Little did I know that he would teach me so much and change what I wanted to do with horses...
