Horse Stuff, March 12


My apologies for all the funky fonts and sizes, it is amazing the differences when you use 2 different browsers to edit...


Horse for sale: Dolly is a 16-year-old sweet mare that is well-patterned in barrels and poles. She was on the track as a two-year and three-year old. Then she was extensively patterned and lightly competed on until she was about seven. After that, she was a brood mare for a while. Now, she has been patterned again and is ready to go. You can view her breeding at: http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/dollface+dancer She is well mannered, clips, bathes, stands for the farrier and most importantly is child safe. She has been ridden on trails, in pastures, around cattle and nothing bothers her. She is NOT the boss mare in a herd, but gets along with everyone. She is ready to help a youth or a novice adult participate in games. For more information contact Beth Hoerle @ 402.460.6569 or Julie Otero @ julie.otero@esu10.org.
