Hello, I didn't see this when I first joined but I am still fairly new!

I'm from Sydney Australia and I own a rescue horse whom I have broken and rehabilitated myself :) He's 14hh, a beautiful flaxen chestnut and he has an unbelievable mane. He has spunk, personality, charisma and sass. He has been the most challenging horse I have worked with, but because of that he has also taught me the most and I love him dearly :)

We have no chosen discipline at the moment, we have done a bit of all. Jumping, trails, dressage etc. I am still trying to figure out what he's good at, even after a year I am still learning things about him. I do ride him in a stock saddle though.

His name is "Spanner" because of an adorable marking on his head which is in the shape of one. Some people may call it a wrench but over here they're called spanners.

This is us during a ride:

This shows of his stunning mane:

This is his adorable canter:

And finally this is me lunging him:

Managing to adopt him was very tough, people believed he was untrainable and unlovable. He was aggressive, disobedient and quite frankly dangerous. But I fell head over heels in love with him. Despite everyone telling me it was impossible and he should just remain as a companion horse, I pushed on and kept working with him. Now here we are <3
