Thank you
This message is from: Dave and Patti Walter dwal...@tm.net Thank you Angela and Deb for the very kind words. I enjoyed both your horses very much. I just have to add a few words about Giz.Being an Ole son, it might have swayed me a little, but I was sooo thrilled to have gotten him in for training. AND, even MORE thrilled to watch him transform. I saw him go from out of shape, not really wanting to work, to loving it and improving all this movements according to the cues given. Plus a wonderful canter on him, GREAT trot, super fun horse to ride. At the same time I got 2 other Ole son's in. Henry and Gus. It really was so NEAT to have all these Ole boys. Gus went to VA and Henry is going to Karen Petty of WA. Can't brag enough about Ole, all have GREAT free flowing trots and GREAT CANTERS! Not to mention the brains, Fjord brains!! Having these 3 Ole boys, it was like a little bit of Ole was still here with me. Corrine xoxo to Ole from me Thanks again girls, was my pleasure to work your horses.

quality mare for sale
This message is from: bry...@together.net We are cutting back on Fjord breeding and have some fabulous mares. We are looking to sell MVF Raiya, hopefully to a breeding home. Raiya has top US evaluation BLUE conformation scores. She has a long strided walk and huge trot, balanced canter. She has produced 4 top quality youngsters; she is easy to breed and settle and is a fantastic mom. Check her pedigree: http://www.nfhr.org/ponyweb/ponyweb.cgi?horse=1090HorseName=mvf%20raiyaPage=1Sort=0 MVF RAIYA is full sister to MVF RAVEL, she is half sister to SNF FJELDE, the lovely mare owned by the Sorums doing so well in dressage. Raiya is one of only 3 mares carrying on the fantastic RAMSTAD line. The Ramstads are big bodied, big moving Fjords. Raiya's dam, MVF Froya is by the famous Swedish stallion, ENE. I always enjoy training the Ene line, I find them good movers with willing minds. Both of MVF Raiya's parents were imported from Norway with top first and second premium sires and dams in their back ground. Raiya is blind in one eye. She can still be ridden (was trained solid 1st level dressage), but it has been several years since she has been used for riding. We would prefer her to go to a breeding home. This is a great opportunity to add top quality blood lines to your breeding program. Please contact me privately for more information, photos, etc. Marcy Baer Briar Hill Farm www.briarhillfarm.com Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw Classified Ads: http://tinyurl.com/5b5g2f
Proper Vet Manners
This message is from: Ann Longfellow annlongfel...@comcast.net My Bjorn was terrified of shots. I thought that he acquired his fear of vets before I purchased him. It turns out he had an iris cyst on his left eye that severely limited his sight. He had laser surgery to remove the cyst a year ago. He stands for the shots now. He also used to bolt and I never knew what might provoke it. After 8 years of runaways I am trail riding with more confidence and often a loose rein. He still is sensitive but will just startle, speed up for a few steps, and then settle down.

Re: fjordhorse-digest V2009 #103
This message is from: Caroline Warren caroline_war...@dot.ca.gov Lisa, I'm in Chico California and sadly, I heard too late about the fjords that got sent to slaughter. I contacted Joe, at Thoroughbred Friends, and gave him my name and number and he says he will let me know if he hears of any more fjords in trouble. He said that the last one at the feed lot in Wilton, CA, was saved.

Re: fjordhorse-digest V2009 #103
This message is from: Jo Wilgus rjrfj...@verizon.net . I contacted Joe, at Thoroughbred Friends, also. I told him if he has a chance to get a Fjord for himself he will not regret it. I live in SoCal but if I thought I may be able to rescue A Fjord I would give it some serious thought. I am not equiped to house several horses, nor do i wish to be, but if I could help ONE and find them a good home I am up for that.

Re: Olivia Farm Web-Site Update
This message is from: jern...@mosquitonet.com So glad you have Anvil's Stina, mother of my Anvil's Adel and daughter of my old mare Stella! I was looking at Sylvia's pedigree and noted that she also goes back to Ola Gik and Flicka through Kviten, while Stella goes back to Ola Gik and Flicka through her dam, Line. Sylvia sure looks a lot like Stella! It will be interesting to see the new offspring from Tico bred to these mares Jean in warm and sunny Fairbanks, Alaska, 70 degrees today.
