Hey Linda,

I only live about 1 hr. from the fair grounds, so my family knows I go for
the education and I try to go one day alone. Last year Hannah was in the
fashion show, how cute but it created a monster!!! At 8 she is already a
clothes horse!! It is a business expense for me because I farm sit for my
job, and I am responsible for lots of horses. If their aren't any classes I
am interested in than I don't go all 3 days, and I try to not stay to long
or to early. My critters need care to.

I think if you look at your books I have spent a bit of change at All Things
Fjord last year. I gotta get me one of those Fjord hooded sweatshirts that's
my next purchase. Everytime I get a fjordie something everyone else wants
one, I can't afford 5 of everything.

So I will be around so whatever is needed I am open.

Roberta

   We received from Beth Beymer the video on the Denver

these folks do with their Fjords. My hat is off to Beth B. and her whole

Stephanie and Avery,
Congratulations on your Fjords. I have the wintec Isbell w/cair system and I
use the wide (red) gullet.  Olaf (Fjord) is what I would describe as
athletic build some might describe him as drafty but my neighbors have
Clydesdales and they are draft.  I use a non-slip sheet with a regular saddle
pad and it works great for both Olaf and myself. Hope this helps.

Please keep us updated on this!  Do you know which station he is with? What 
is his name, etc.  I'll have to be sure to watch for it in May!!

I will keep you posted.  I heard he's on Channel 12.  But I watch satellite, 
not local so much so can't give you the name of the station.  Will check.  
And I'll find out his name.  And will also give a heads up when I know it 
will be airing.

Thanks for the memo.  That's not a bad idea to find out aboutgetting in 
touch with the program itself and finding out if a taping of some sort would 
be available.  I'll look into that.

Hi Beth

We have had such a horrible winter here in Virginia that my husband and I 
have taken to watching the Encore Western Channel - we have gotten 
reacquainted with Matt, Doc and Miss Kitty.  Yes, our winter has been that 
bad!  We also saw the promo for dancing with horses, but didn't realize that 
the whole program was going to air.  If you hear of the times, I would 
appreciate knowing.  The promo was great - showed several clips of fjords as 
well as other beautiful performances.  One was a beautiful huge belgian doing 
some beautiful dressage movements.  

We have snow and ice on the ground here again

Hello Fred,

 If a Llama sees danger, it will first let out a distinctive and loud warning
 cry.  This alerts the horses do danger and also, 99% of the time scare off
 the danger.  

We do not use our llamas for guarding, but they still tell us when danger 
is around.  Just the other day, I went down to my office and saw through the 
window Engar, our Fjord stallion was on alert.  You know, ears perked, nose 
forward, he was intently watching something.  I looked over to the llama pen 
and there all six were, along with our donkey, standing in a line at the 
fence, staring at something.  I went immediately outside and there were two 
HUGE dogs at our pony pen!  The ponies were scared, needless to say, but 
because of Engar and the llamas, I was able to chase the dogs away before any 
damage was done to the ponies.

Hi Everyone,

For those of you who get the Starz Encore Group Westerns channel, the
Evening of Dancing Horses is supposed to be shown sometime in March.
Apparently, the promotional spot about the show has begun airing, as
one of my students told me that a friend of hers saw it in New Mexico?
The dates and times of the show are supposed to be available, or begin
airing, on Feb. 28th?  I'm not sure.  We don't get the Westerns
channel.  We have seen the video footage of the long promotional piece
and several shots of the quadrille are included.  Sami Poirier and
Cheryl Gioia were interviewed and did a great job!

If anyone sees it, will you let us know?  Thanks.

Beth

We've been watching that particular commercial on the Westerns channel (is
there any other? =))) and are thrilled to see the GREAT looking Fjords on it
! Even one with a fancy zig-zag cut mane that looks terrific ! (the black is
left standard long, while the lighter hairs have been cut into diamond
points ^^ with the black as a pattern background.  (hard to describe).
Just one more good reason for buying a Fjord horse, so you can have a fancy
mane job =)

I have a copy of the long version of the promotional tape and it says
something about Taking you On the Trail to an Evening of Dancing
Horses.  Maybe their On the Trail thing is just a snippet about the
show.  Bummer if it is, and if so, I'm sorry I got everyone excited
about it.  Hopefully, some of you will get to see the long version,
which shows several clips of the quadrille itself.  Ah well, any air
time is better than no air time!

Gretchen,

so far... all we have seen is a very brief commercial advertizing the
dancing horses event (it's compromised of mostly a couple of very large
draft horses mincing around) but toward the end you can see a couple of
Fjords standing behind the promotional speaker... we got so excited we
missed the message! hee hee

even so, I do believe it is referring to the event itself and in all
liklihood, may very well not be televised (at least not on that particular
channel).

it would be splendiferously wonderful if it were on tv, and I would sure
enough record it for you if it were. maybe someone with the show itself will
do just that and reproduce a video for the many Fjord fans in Fjord List
land ...?
