This message is from: John and Martie Bolinski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I had a friend many years ago who owned a grey Fjord. she did not win many ribbons at open shows (hunter/jumper) because the judges said she was not 'hunter type'. she won consistently in the horsemanship classes. My pony consistently beat hers and her horse was a much better performer and much safer to ride. Her mom decided she needed something with a little more 'fire' and 'figure' so she had the mare bred to a local Arab. The baby was gorgeous. The baby was NUTS and dangerous to handle even after consistent training. They sold both the Fjord and the 3 yr old and bought a thoroughbred. I wanted to buy the Fjord, but they sold them as a pair and didn't tell me they were selling until the deed was done. Pretty is as pretty does. She was a large beautiful mare with the nicest temperament I have ever seen in a horse.
