Hi ladies:
I've got an old yard ornament. (affectionately called the Y/O) She's a 15 yr old Paint mare. Had 2 beautiful paint fillies when she was younger. She's retired now, living the easy life, except for giving the grandkids rides in the yard.
The only work she knows is being ridden to the pasture where the cows are and then outsmarting them to get them headed to the catch pen. She's 16 hands and bay in color. Got her nick name "yard ornament" cause during the summer I put temporary electric fence around the back yard and let her roam it and graze on the grass. I go out on the deck in the morning and have my coffee with her. (when we don't have cold weather) The only reason she's retired is because of my disabilities. Hubby doesn't ride.
My sis had a warmblood, Wallazan, He was a Dutch WB. Almost needed a step ladder to hop on. He was trained in dressage but had quite an attitude and she wasn't experienced enough to handle him. I'm not sure where he is now.
