A good home
This message is from: Sherle Monheim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello List!I need your help with a problem. A friend of our has a 26 year old retarded daughter who lives at home with her mom. Her only thrill in life is horseback riding. She has been riding a Quarter Horse gelding, who is now turned 35 years old and they have been told the horse is not long for this world. They are desparately looking for a replacement. They would like it to be a Fjord. They are looking for an aged gelding that is broke, broke, broke to ride. 15 to 20 year range and they are willing to pay something for the fellow. If any of you have or know where there is a gelding like this and would like to see it go to a good home for the rest of its life, please contact me so that I could pass on the information. They were looking for a quiet breed and I sure would like to see one of the Fjords fill this void. Thanks, Sherle in Wisconsin where we finally have sun, sun and more sun.
Re: Clipping for open shows
This message is from: Sherle Monheim [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've been lurking here for the past two days reading about clipping and showing. We took our stallion to about six open shows last fall and the classes were some where between 8 and fourteen, most quarters, saddlebred, morgans. We clipped his muzzle chin hairs, and just the outside edges of the ears. Left the legs and eyes unclipped. He place second in 4 of the shows and 4th in 2 of the shows. The judges knew what kind of a horse he was, but the other people showing couldn't believe where he placed against their well groomed, clipped and oiled fancy horses. So in my opinion, try it and see. Its a lot of fun taking them to open shows and the amount of exposure is wonderful for the breed and your horse. Thanks Sherle in Northern Wisconsin where we still have snow and ice!!
