Once again I've been "given the oppertunitly" to try and find a neighbouring equine a good home before she lands in what could be a less than...
Poor little lady is without a name and I got the call that she is headed to olex the next time owners head that direction. I took her dam in this past fall when upon weaning she was being shipped because her heaves had gotten so bad. Happy to report "Ruby" is all fixed up and I'm working with her to hopefully get her going under saddle soon. Owners have now come to the conclusion that filly foal is not needed and "too wild" so she needs to go too...(don't even get me started) She is cute as a button, is now wearing a halter and comes into a stall when the weather is real nasty but other than that is basically unhandled, hence her being wild. I'm confident that with just a couple weeks of a kind hand and consistant handling she will be just fine. She was born in the spring but I'm not exactly sure when (guessing May) Both parents are 12-12.2hh and just adorable. Ruby is welsh and daddy was a multiple champion hackney pony at the royal and all over North America (Is now a teaser at a large TB breeding farm). Yes, this was a planned breeding - why on earth I do not know. What I do know is this sweet little girl deserves better than she is being offered and if I had 10 min to spare in my day I would take her but I just do not. Currently have 8 here, 3 of which need work/rehab on a daily basis, full time job, 2 little kids.... Anyone interested please shoot me an e-mail at jaredoverland at yahoo dot com. She's located in Rockwood just down the road from me and is free for the taking but time is not unlimited. I have a pic from the fall that gives a good indication of her absolute cuteness
Thanks gang
