Re: [RC] New Horse! - Mike Lewis

Congratulations!  Your new pony (I don't mean that in a negative way)
sounds like a cutie.  How exciting!  :-)

Enjoy!!

Thanks to everyone that answered my inquiries about good horse
conformation, as well as my questions about the temperaments of arabs.
 
I found my horse!  He's a four-year-old arab/appy gelding.  I had the
prepurchase exam done by a veterinarian in W Washington that does
ride-and-tie and endurance and he really liked him.  His only negatives
were a crack in a rear hoof and a teary eye.  But he said he was very
sensible and smart as a whip.
 
I'm pretty excited about it all, and get to spend the summer breaking
the little beggar.  I guess I'll be finally seeing ya'll on the trails
next summer, so watch out for me and my indescribably-colored horse.
(Seriously, I can't describe his color, and either could the vet.  He
said, "He's like a brown gruella with white spots, but I can't really
tell where the white ends or begins.")
 
And my Belgian mare is officially retired to husband-sitting.
