Nadahl is an incredible Friesian x Stock Horse, a combination that gives him the striking presence of his Friesian heritage and the unflappable practicality of an Australian stock horse. He is curious, playful, and possessed of a personality that fills whatever space he is in. He is also, without question, the most food-motivated member of the team.

What makes Nadahl exceptional for this work is not his breeding or his training - it is his fundamental orientation toward people. He seeks out human contact. He is genuinely interested in whoever is standing in front of him, and that interest is immediate, uncomplicated, and completely without agenda. People who have never been near a horse in their life find themselves completely at ease with him within minutes.

He is, in the best possible way, a half-ton golden retriever. Gentle, kind, occasionally cheeky, and constitutionally incapable of pretending he feels something he doesn't. In a session, that last quality is everything.
