She lives with the goats in their pasture and lets the kids ride like a pony ride. But if I try to get on her she only wants to go to the barn!!! The dentist said she was closer to 30 and had horrible teeth. One fell out in the dentists hand. We saved it.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15359548256030486087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1772433656046553120.post-53233675810060349782012-10-21T14:45:19.672-05:002012-10-21T14:45:19.672-05:00How is the old girl doing now?

She sounds like a good girl and though I am no expert, I have some experience buying "the right horse" for a special boy and all three have been old mares. The special boy is my 12 year old son. The horse is something that brings such improvement to his motor and language skills. Can't put a price on it. <br /><br />You were probably spot on with having the teeth looked at. That and getting her away from the more dominant younger horses. I once made a mistake by finding an absolute dead broke, highly trained, been there/done that old mare for a friend's 6 year old son to learn on. They promised the owner and me that she'd have her own stall to eat in so she couldn't be run off from the feed. They failed in their promised and that mare starved to death slowly over a couple years after being run off by a nasty tempered, poorly trained fat mare. As I had moved away I was unaware until I visited. Their attitude was that she needed to fight back. <br /><br />We are not friends now.<br /><br />Please update us all on your girl.<br /><br />sidetracksusieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
