Hip 33 Cookie Monster 2022 Half Draft Gelding

Description:

Cookie Monster is truly one in a million—a 4-year-old, 15.3-hand gelding who turns heads with his unique color but wins hearts with his gentle soul and steady demeanor. Don’t let his youth fool you; he carries the wisdom of an old soul and the patience of a saint. Calm, kind, and straightforward, Cookie Monster is the kind of horse who makes you feel like you’ve known him forever from the moment you meet.

He moves with smooth, beautiful transitions and trots like a dream—balanced, rhythmic, and easy on the rider. He’s got the brains and training to sidepass both on the ground and under saddle, and he’ll politely sidepass right up to the mounting block so you can hop on with ease. Handling daily tasks? No problem. Cookie Monster is easy to catch, bridle, saddle, shoe, bathe, tie—and loads quietly in the trailer without a fuss. He's comfortable around cattle and has gathered, loaded some trucks, and sorted in the alleys. On the flip side, he's been lightly started over some cross rails, little logs and some hunter pace. 

Versatility is his middle name. He’s great to ride double, can drag a tarp with no complaints, and proudly carry a flag when called upon. He’s seen it all and keeps his cool: busy trails, traffic, cows, dogs, pigs, goats, bikes—you name it. He’s calm around natural and man-made obstacles alike, always steady and focused. He goes English or Western, Trails or Arena, low and slow or upward and forward. 

Cookie Monster’s kindness shines brightest when he’s around kids or anyone looking for a patient, reliable partner. Simply put, he gives his whole heart to everyone he meets—and he’s the kind of horse who’ll quietly remind you every day why he’s so special. If you want a horse who’s as honest and straightforward as they come, with a gentle spirit and a can-do attitude, Cookie Monster is your guy.

Cookie Monster is all caught up on dental, vaccinations, chiropractic care, hoof care, and worming—ready to roll with no surprises! You’re invited to visit our home facility in Baxter Springs, Kansas, for test rides and meet-and-greets—giving you the perfect chance to connect with Cookie Monster up close.
