Well Tiffany, anyone can tell you love Beautiful, she is always just gleaming in the photos, even in the winter time. She looked lovely in the photo’s at the fair too. I just love me a good mare, so much in fact that I TRIED to own geldings, really I did. I adopted one and got another, neither did it for me like my mares do. One was sold and is doing well, the other is leased. Only geldings I’ve owned in forty one years…lol.
Right now I have all mares…let’s see: Tyranna the TWH mare - she’s a princess and knows it. The wee pony Bonnie, a Queen in the making. Pumpkin - the mule, a granny doing her thing. Molly - what can you say about a big butted woman? She makes mine look small - and is good Belgian to boot! Girlie - typical 8 year old, comparable to a 20’s something female, thinks she can do anything and tries hard, but sometimes falls on her face, but is sweet and willing and will go far in the hunters if allowed.
And RIP Aloha, the great grandma of my farm, now laid to rest, you put that bossy little Bonnie in her place, taught Aloha that Princesses can be dethroned and loved every single little girl and boy who came to brush and pet you. I miss that old gal.
Mares can be the most aggravating animals on earth, then turn right around and give you whuffies and will tote your sorry butt further without question once they know you are determined to go. Never underestimate a mare.
