Re: Fjord gelding wanted - location
This message is from: Lynne Larry Boe [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lori Lemley, With reference to your message re: looking for a fjord gelding we have on consignment sale 10 yr. old gelding Jorgeneson that rides real well, he's a good solid chunky horse, not real flashy, prancey or nervous. Stands about 14 hands, rich brown dun colouring. Too bad there is so much distance involved. Will await your reply.

Re: Quinn will be for sale
This message is from: Lynne Larry Boe [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yes Cloudy drives - Original Message - From: Dagrun Aarsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 7:17 PM Subject: Quinn will be for sale This message is from: Dagrun Aarsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] So as I mentioned in my previous message, I will be moving to Norway in 4 months or so, which means that my beloved Quinn will be for sale. Quinn is a 6 (coming 7) year old gelding, registered name Bo-Fjord's Cloudy. About 14h1 or 14h2 tall. He has so far excelled at everything he has tried and loves a challenge. He has successfully competed at Novice Level eventing and has dressage scores up to 70.5%. At the Turlock evaluation in 2001 he received a Blue ribbon for conformation and movement. At Skandifest 2002 he was Novice Fjord Horse champion. He has excellent movement, very big and perfect for dressage. Large overstep at walk, big bouncy trot and a wonderful, balanced canter. But the best thing about him is his personality - very, very expressive and a total charmer. For adults and advanced riders, he is a great performer, and for little kids and nervous riders he is a wonderful confidence builder, walking carefully around with very small steps. Very gentle, loves people. However, he would do best under the supervision of an experienced person. I feel that if he is only around beginners for a long time he will start to feel in charge. (going for the grass when led in a halter, exciting the gate when the beginner rider isn't paying attention, deciding that he'd rather walk slowly than trot - he would never do something dangerous). Not trained to drive yet (we've been so busy with dressage and jumping) but we've done lots of ground driving and he could be ready to be hitched up very quickly. I might start working on that now that the show season is over. He thinks everything is a game and loves learning new things. Not much scares him, and I'm sure he'll make a fantastic driving horse. I have considered bringing him to Norway, since I don't think I'll find such a good match for me ever again, but financially that is just a very bad idea. Luckily I know it will be easy to find him a good home. I'm asking around $10K for him. Pictures of Quinn can be found on my website www.dagrun.freeservers.com - all over but especially under Quinn picture gallery. My two thoroughbred mares Nora and Shannon will also be for sale.

I have recently become very interested in Fjords. I have been in horses almost all my life. I have admired the Fjord for a long time, and don't know why it has taken me so long in pursuit of one of these wonderful equines. I am mostly just a pleasure rider, trails, parks, and would like to do some parades. I like to use English gear, but can go western every now and then:o) I do have a little interest in dressage, which probably stems from my saddlebred years, the 1970's! Oops, yes I am older now and prefer a calmer, steadier horse! I do own a Friesian mare who is the dearest thing. I ride her, but I do breed her, so she is out on foal duty some. I have a miniature horse gelding who keeps her company. I would love to find a Fjord, prefer well-trained to ride and drive, but could be green. Prefer a taller one, at least 14.2 hands. Feel free to e-mail me privately if you have something for sale. I'm not interested in breeding, so geldings would be great. Me and my husband plan on trail riding this spring and summer! I also want to say the Fjord people I have contacted have been the nicest, most helpful group of people! Regards, Deborah Piercefield Williamstown, Kentucky
Re: Good little Quinn
This message is from: Lynne Larry Boe [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello Dagrun, The horse that you refer to as Quinn what is his registered name? Lynne Boe from Bo-Fjords - Original Message - From: Dagrun Aarsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mystery. Com fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 4:09 PM Subject: Good little Quinn This message is from: Dagrun Aarsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello listers, Just have to share my excitement! Quinn started to understand canter cues yesterday (leg) for the first time! And differentiating between left and right! He was so proud of himself! He is also yeilding to my leg, both sides, bending nicely, shortening and extending and carrying himself really. And he jumps like a dream! Nothing high yet, but getting the techniques down and NEVER stops, ever. I'm so excited! This is the first time I'm a) Training my OWN horse b) Training a horse without bad habits and issues to be untrained c) Training a horse with naturally good movement and conformation - he goes on the bit and uses his back correctly all by himself. As long as I sit balanced. And have nice steady light bit contact. Who knows, maybe I am biased. But he really is exceptional! My TB mare is doing good, too. Much better when riding now. She is out in pasture 24/7 and is building muscle and loosening up her movements. The other day I was free lungeing her and she did her nice slow canter, then suddenly slipped (in a pile of poop) and fell. Nothing scary, she didn't even worry herself, just got back up and kept going. But from that fall, she managed to get maybe 10 new scratches. Falling in the soft arena literally took several patches of skin off! How can a horse be that thin-skinned?? No wonder she looks beat up from pasture... Stick to fjords, people :-) Dagrun in San Jose, looking forward to Turlock!

This message is from: Sara Faull [EMAIL PROTECTED] Very impressive... especially the trailering part. Does anyone out there have any suggestions on how to de-sensitize a stallion to mares- so he can work and be social without thinking about breeding whenever he sees another horse? Our stallion is wonderful and gentle but has lived his whole breeding life (13 years) only seeing mares when he breeds them... Right now he is manageable but very strong...
