I wasn't looking for a horse right at this moment in time. Our yard is far from ready to stable horses but a friend messaged me that I had to come see this horse and that he would be the perfect match for me. So I just went to have a look...
And maybe a little test ride... I took him on his first trail ride in years and he acted like an old pro. Plastic bags blowing in the wind, rabbits and dogs didn't worry him one little bit. Smooth trot, canter and mostly he has so much try, just wants to please. When I was leaving he called out for me, oh man I knew he had to come home with me. A few calls where made and he was mine, living just 5 mins away till we get the yard ready.
I'm not a huge Arabian fan but this little guy won my heart. He doesn't really act like a Arabian so he might not be pure, he acts more Quarter then anything. He was inherited by a guy who didn't want horses so he dumped them at my friend's house. His hoofs where so overgrown that they started to curl up and he hadn't been properly care for in a long time.
I'll be getting him healthy, his winter coat shed out and all the time, love and care he needs for the rest of his life.
