This message is from: Gina Larson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello Friends--
Hope all are enjoying the spring weather. It's still a little cold here in NE WI though, but the sun is finally shining! I don't want to put the cart before the horse so to speak, but I am starting to do some research into purchasing my first fjord! Finally, Yay! So far all is a go with the sale of my rambunctious thoroughbred, but I don't want to start seriously looking for another horse until all is final and he is permanently in his new home. Regardless, I started to do a little looking and am feeling a touch overwhelmed. I found a breeder directory that listed over 100 fjord breeders! I am hoping to puchase in the Midwest due to transportation issues. I'm looking for a fjord to ride, on the taller side, to be my lesson horse and trail companion. I would prefer a horse that is already trained to ride, but would consider a younger horse as I have a friend who is a talented trainer. The thing is, I have a pretty meager budget of no more than $3000, and I'm starting to think that is unrealistically low with what I have been finding on the internet so far. Again, I'm not in any particular hurry and have to wait until the end of the month anyway until the sale of my horse is final). But I was wondering if anyone could offer any guidance or advice at this point in my search! I also caught word of a pair of fjords right here in my home county that are informally for sale, but I have no other info on them yet. I can hardly believe this is actually happening! Thank you so much! Gina Larson Marinette WI
