This horse was NOT stolen, I am just looking for a Hanoverian gelding that I worked with as a teenager. He would be 18-20 years old now if he is even still alive.
I was employed at a farm in Northeast Georgia called Fairmount Farms Inc. It was run by a woman named Angela Von Haeften and her partner Mary Margaret (cannot remember last name).
The geldings name was Dante, I believe his registered name was Dederick’s Dante or something to that effect, the spelling may be off. He was approximately 4 years old when I last saw him and had just begun under saddle training. A small, compact horse, about 16hds. He was a light dusty bay with a dorsal stripe. Loved sugar cubes. Made a mess of his stall every day. The horse was something of a problem under saddle from what I was told. He was my ‘special guy’ at the farm and I would love to see him again!
I believe that the farm was owned by a corporation and that it moved to Florida somewhere near Wellington possibly.
Some of the horses that I remember (it was 14 years ago so it’s been a while):
Timmy (older chestnut TB gelding, dressage trained.)
Dannaker (Dark bay Hanoverian or Holsteiner gelding, Angela’s personal horse, dressage trained)
Romeo (17+hd Hanoverian gelding, dark bay, 18-20 now.)
Rainbow (little dark bay mare)
Wellengang (big dapple gray gelding)
Victor (light bay gelding, big blaze, socks)
I would love it if anyone has any information on Dante. I’ve researched the name in various spellings, the farm name, the owners names, etc. over the past few years and have not come up with any leads.
