This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message is from: Mary Thurman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi List, This is an advertisement, so if that bothers you, please ignore it. We are selling our two Fjord geldings. Both are five years old, have been ridden(Western) since they were three. At three they had 60 days professional training to get them started right; then we worked with a trainer off and on for the rest of the year. At four they were sent for more training for two weeks. They have been ridden on trails, on the beach, in the Libby show(twice), in the Libby parade(twice). Both were ground driven as yearlings and two-year-olds - -were shown in the ground driving classes at Libby both years. They are both gentlemen - are hobble broke, trailer well, clip, bathe, etc., etc. They're ready to go, eager to learn whatever you have to teach them. They are currently residing at Field of Dreams Fjordhorses in Eugene, Oregon. Contact Gayle Ware - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - for information or to have a look at them. Mary Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to expand on the above information regarding these two geldings that are for sale. Both of these fellas are an absolute delight. They have been started RIGHT. They have been here for a couple of weeks and neither of them has made one wrong move! I have ridden both of them, have given lessons on them to several different students, even dressed one of them English and took him over some jumps. In other words, I have 'put them to the test' and they have passed with flying colors! As an example, I put them in the groom room to tidy up their haircuts. Mary told me that they were not used electric clippers. Anyone who has ever tried to clip a 5 year old for the first time knows what a hassle that is!! Each of these boys reacted in the same manner. When I turned the clippers on, their heads came up and they asked me if those 'things' were going to eat them for lunch?? THAT WAS IT. They didn't blow up, sit back, get frantic. I assured them that I wouldn't let the 'monsters' hurt them and they said OK! I proceeded to trim bridle paths, EARS, faces, and legs. NO BIG DEAL! I was really impressed with their dispositions at that point!! Sindar is 14.2 and is sired by Anne Appleby's stallion, Misha. He is a cutie and is very smooth to ride. He has a huge walk, over strides by at least a foot! He might make a very nice dressage candidate. He already goes nicely western (and jumps now too). Glendar is 15.2 and is quite handy for a big guy. He has a dandy balanced stop and executes some pretty nice rollbacks! He has a great extended trot with lots of impulsion. Both of these fellas are kind & quiet, the type of horse that everyone is looking for. They will make someone wonderful companions and are ready to go!
