"Buzz was the easiest, most athletic, and fun youngster to bring along of any horse I've ever sat on. He has an incredible mind and is so trainable. He seemed to have all the right instincts and I had high hopes for him." -SAM
Legions Pride ("Buzz") 2003 IDSH Gelding, Bay, 16 hands by The Pride of Gloster (Clover Hill) X Last Legion (American Legion)
Buzz is absolutely the coolest horse I've ever met, had, or sat on. He was a dream to bring along. Everyone that saw him jump was just in awe. He jumped anything and everything and was incredibly scopey. Everything was easy for him. He is a love. It really is a tragedy that his career is over before it even started. Every time I think about it, it makes my heart hurt. It's just so incredibly sad. Like you described his sire - Buzz was game for everything. So depressing. :( " -SAM
- In 2008 he had a fluke accident in the pasture and tore all the cartilage in his stifle. After several weeks at WSU and expert opinion from Dr. Schneider, he is a very fancy pasture ornament that may be able to return to light work andtrail riding in the future. He is lovely to have around either way because he is just the sweetest guy you'll ever meet. Everyone that comes to the farm says, "Buzz is my favorite." - Buzz loves to nap. I've never seen a horse lay down, flat out, as much as he does. He likes to nap in the sun, under trees, anywhere and everywhere. -
