HELLO FROM GREEN MEADOW FARM!
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Fellow Fjordlovers, It's a pleasure to be a new member of the Fjord Digest. I was unaware that such a group existed until just this week. Your e-mails are certainly very enjoyable and informative. You will all be happy to hear that I have the Fjord gelding here on Green Meadow Farm who was to be shipped off to a supposed rescue league (Crossed Sabers). He's happy, healthy and turned out with his mother and our other Fjords. The best news is that he now belongs to me and will never have to face that fate again! He's been in training on Green Meadow all last season and is ready for long lining and ground driving this Spring. He will probably be offered for sale eventually, but I would like to have him under saddle first. If anyone is interested in him and has the ability to finish him themselves, I would love hearing from you. With best regards, Karen L.

Sometimes when they're flat out on their side and really pass out they can make the worst snoring noises I have ever heard that can be heard from quite a distance-- some guests have been incredulous over their snoring abilities.

Hello, I have not read anything on the subject, but have watched them 'dream' many times. Last weekend one of the gals who works for me, motioned for me to come over. She was standing in front of Johan's (our 3 year old gray stallion) stall. She was giggling and pointed into the stall. Johan was laying flat and was definitely far off in la-la land. He was nickering softly and moving. Just an educated guess on my part, but think I could honestly say that he was NOT dreaming about FOOD! LOL! I think the neatest horse I ever saw dreaming was several years ago at Schweitzer Ski Mountain. I had taken a group of my clients up there for a day to go on sleigh rides with Chip Lamb, who had several of his Fjords there during the winters providing sleigh rides and horse shuttle service. He had a really nice barn there, heated by a wood stove for folks to huddle around when it was cold. The people could watch the horses being harnessed, pet them, etc. There were stalls for the horses inside there too. This particular day, one of the pregnant mares had decided to catch a cat nap. She was lying flat, her foal was moving around quite a bit - and she was nickering softly to it each time it moved! Everyone gathered around to watch. TOO KOOL! Yes, horses do dream!

Re: fjord dream
This message is from: Alison Bakken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Tammy, I don't know of any studies of horses dreaming, but I know that they dream. I found my stalion Borgen asleep in the sunny, but he was whinning and moving. It was the spring, I think he was dreaming of the girls. The whinny that he was making in his dream was the same one that he calls the mares with. I woke him up when I walked by and he looked around as much as the say "Well where are they".
