A Bit About Me and my Horse(s): I started riding in my late 20's with my first horse Penny who couldn't have been more perfect. Supported me through my learning curve and looking back I realize just how amazing those horses are! She retired with an elderly lady and passed away in her late 20's a happy loved horse. My second horse was an OTTB who I had for 10 yrs and recently lost very unexpectedly this Feb. It was devasting to say the least. Pete was the most amazing horse I have ever known. He had chronic lymphangitis in his left hind that I wrapped from coronet band to top of his hock everyday for the last 5 yrs of his life. It was what kept him sound and happy so it is what I did ... he never wanted to be a retiree and he taught me more than I will ever be able to give back to any horse. A jumper with a heart that was bigger than his lymphangitis could EVER be to his last days at almost 19! He was my best friend, my family, my serenity and my happiness ...it took a long time to be ready to create that bond with another.
So today, as I type my registration on this site I welcomed a new horse into my life :) My new family member is 7yrs old handsome OTTB named Gazumba!! And I can't wait to start our story :)
