HORSES TO PLACE
Ready to be adopted, rescued in October: sweet Arabian mare, 17 years old, registered. She had dressage training with Greta Wrigley before. She is 14.2 hands. She is all filled out now and looks fantastic. She is very calm and nice at home, but was really nervous the first few days she was here. She is up to date on everything, including her teeth floating. She is a nice little mare. I wouldn't say for a beginner as she was nervous the first few days she was here. I haven't been able to ride her as my back is really messed up. I bought her in hopes my daughter would enjoy her, but my daughter has discovered boys. So this beautiful mare would love a wonderful home. I would love to adopt her out for $250 to a great home. My number is 854-3238 and my e-mail is YasminOaks@aol.com. [May/June 2010]
