This message is from: "Beth Pulsifer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Being new here... I'd be interested to know Hostar's story. I'm just learning about the Fjord horse and I'm certian it's the horse for me. In another week or so I should be a new owner if all goes well!!:) Can anyone give information on trimming the manes? Is there a guide to go by?... Do you need special blades etc. Thanks so much for any help that can be given. Beth

It is a testimony to this breed we all love, I have never worked with ANY breed with more of a willingness to survive and please. Hostar's story is one for the books. All of you buy these horses, because there's "something" you see in them. ] Maybe it's what happened originally in Norway - where there was never a written document regarding a breed standard - maybe what these Fjord horses give to us can not be put down on paper. It's just "felt". I should add I could not have made one ounce of improvement with Hostar without the support of Melinda, she is a trainers dream owner, compassionate, trusting and never takes a step without her heart along stride.
