From Trainer Sarah:

 

I've been pretty quiet on this page lately, hopefully i can make some time to take more videos for you all. Alex has been working very hard on many necessary skills. He loads, picks up all 4 feet, gets ponied on trailrides, and is learning how to lunge. I've also introduced feedbags, saddle pads, and tarps to him recently. And he got a bath, which he handled amazingly! 

 

Alex will be available for adoption at the Dakota Showdown Finale on August 23, 2026 in Lennox, South Dakota. Check out [http://dakotashowdown.com](https://dakotashowdown.com/) for more info.
