Re: Horse history=new Arab purchase

[rides2far@juno.com (Angela C. McGhee)]

About 90% of all dealers say a horse is 8, unless they are over 19 which
is when they say they are "13"  I'd have a vet look at her teeth and see
if they go along with that age catagory if you're going to use it as a
clue.  Good luck!
