DAN'S CURLY FOXTROTTER |
|
"BRAVEHEART" |
WE ARE BLESSED TO LIVE WITH THE WOODS & TRAILS IN OUR BACKYARD
& THE BEACH IN FRONT, ABOUT 3 MINUTES FROM THE HOUSE. WE MAINLY TRAILRIDE & BEACH RIDE (OUR SHOW DAYS ARE OVER),
BUT WE LIKE TO DO PARADES, & HORSE EXPOS, TO SHOW OFF THESE RARE WONDERFUL HORSES. THEY REALLY DO LOVE PEOPLE, WE DONT
HAVE TO "CATCH" THEM, WE CANT GET RID OF THEM! THEY WOULD BE LAP HORSES IF YOU LET THEM! THEY LOVE TO GO RIDING TO & LOVE
TO PLAY GAMES. WE FOLLOW NATURAL HORSEMANSHIP THRU OUR FAVORITE TRAINER PAT PARELLI. THE HORSES STAY WITH US & GO RIDING,
BECAUSE WE KEEP IT FUN & THEY WANT TO. NOT BECAUSE WE MAKE THEM. THEIR WOOL IS VERY NICE & SUE IS LEARNING TO SPIN,
SO SHE CAN MAKE SHAWLS, & HATS, WITH IT. WE HAVE A RENDEZVOUS FRIEND "BABBLES" WHO IS ALLERGIC TO ANIMALS, BUT NOT
THESE HORSES. THEY HAVE NO DANDER SO ARE HYPOALLERGENIC.

SUE's CURLY APPALOOSA "STORMY" |
|
POPLAR's MY SPOT IN THE STORM in Regalia |
SUE'S HAS BEEN HORSE CRAZY SINCE THE FIRST
TIME SHE SAW ONE AS A BABY. HER FIRST WORD WAS "ORSE"! SHE HAD A LITTLE BLACK PONY GROWING UP & HAD "ADOPTED" PARENTS
THAT HAD A RIDING STABLE ON THE BEACH, WERE INTO 4H, TRAIL RIDING, & HAD A CARRIAGE BUSINESS.
SHE RAISED POA(APPALOOSA) PONYS FOR 10 YEARS,
GOT HER BRITISH ACREDITED RIDING MASTER CERTIFICATE IN COLLAGE, WORKED FOR VETS, ARABIAN, QUARTER HORSE, WELSH PONY, LIPPIZANER,
SADDLEBRED & PAINT HORSE FARMS, WAS A EXERSIZE RIDER & JOCKEY & EVEN WORKED FOR THE HORSE TRAINER AT
THE CIRCUS FOR AWHILE! SHE DRAGGED DAN ON A TRAIL RIDE ON THEIR FIRST DATE & WHEN GETTING SCRAPPED OFF UNDER A TREE BRANCH
DIDNT SCARE HIM OFF, THEY DATED & THEN MARRIED IN 1982.
WHEN SHE FINALLY WENT LOOKING FOR HER DREAM
HORSE, LITTLE DID THEY KNOW THAT THEY WOULD START A WHOLE NEW CHAPTER IN THEIR LIVES. HER DREAM HORSE ENDED UP BEING EVERYTHING
SHE EVER DREAMED OF & MORE! HE IS A CURLY HORSE. YES, CURLY! LIKE A POODLE! AND HYPOALLERGENIC & YOU CAN SPIN
THEIR MOHAIR LIKE WOOL INTO SWEATERS, HATS & WHATEVER!:) SHE FOUND SEVERAL MORE & THEN FOUND DAN'S DREAM HORSE,
CURLY FOXTROTTER "BRAVEHEART". HE GAITS VERY SMOOTH, NO TROTTING UP & DOWN!
HE IS A GREAT TRAIL HORSE & PERFECT FOR
DAN! WE GO TO HORSE EXPOS, PARADES, ETC TO PROMOTE THE BREED. THEY ARE AWESOME!
