>>> Ohmigosh - is she ever sweet. Tell us about her??
She's 11, probably 12.3-13H, and been a brood mare, and never had any saddle training. In fact, she hasn't had much training at all. She leads, and stands pretty well to have her feet picked, etc., but she doesn't trust people fully and she can be pretty jumpy. I understand she can be very hard to catch. I believe she was one of the "leave 'em alone" types for a long time - having virtually no handling as a youngster. Her conformation looks good to me, but of course, I'm essentially out of the breeding business anyway. I wanted her when I found out she was available as a project horse because I know many of her relatives...who happen to be some of our favorite horses. Once I saw how much she looked like my Bjola, her half-sister, I wanted her. She is built almost exactly like Bjola, and she has eyes like her niece, Maja. My Ima is another of her nieces, and Kola is her great-niece. Bjola and Maja are two of our Einstein's, eerily smart, as are their daughters, but we'll try not to set our expectations too high for our new girl. She's Angie and no one else, so she'll be special for what she is. :) She has a lovely, floating trot - not sure what else is in there yet. I'm not sure what we're going to do with her, or when. We'll just take it one day at a time. Maybe I'll ride her sometime, maybe not. Right now, she just needs to know she's special and that someone loves her, and we do already.
