Hi Carole, Oh well, here I go again. Once you start me up........ You need to go to the Pre-Eval Clinic that Karen McCarthy is having at her ranch in Carson City, NV on July 7th and 8th. There is going to be a mane trimming demo!!! I am getting way too excited about all this!

No, I do NOT keep it roached!!! YUK!!!!!! It is a bit shorter than the Fjord's, though. I am taking my gelding, Nattmann, to Turlock. Besides wanting to have some idea on my own as to how "typically Fjordy" he is, it helps the breeder to know that they are on the right track, too, with their breeding program. So, it isn't as much of a futile effort to take a gelding to an evaluation as one might think, but can be very constructive for both the owner and the breeder! But, how could any breeder go wrong with these cuties??!!! So, there's my thought on the subject....and "GOOD!" for all you bringing geldings!!! Back to manes........the white is gone in the middle of Nattmann's mane.....oops, oh well! So, I am supposed to evenly clip the white 1/4" below the black, and have it look GOOD??!?! So far my efforts are definitely sub par! Anyone in Turlock doing manes for those of us that are scissor/mane challenged so that we may present our Fjords to their best advantage in the evaluation and for the show!??!?!??!?!? (We at least can do the halter class). Carole Sweet Modesto, CA
