I don't have any horsey friends, so no one will be able to relate to the absolute elation I am feeling today. I bought my first horse and I am floating on cloud nine! After a few weeks of leasing this boy, I have realized that he and I are meant to be.

He's an 8 year old gelding. We measured him today at 5.1 hands and he is a Curly horse. He's fun to ride and his ground manners are wonderful. We live in the suburbs so he is boarded at the base of a mountain. There are miles of BLM land to ride on there and it's only about a 20 minute drive. He has a girlfriend on the corals on either side of him and they are always a little upset when I take him out. They both knicker like crazy when he comes back though! :) I just love him!!!

He's not very curly. His fetlocks curl quite a bit and his hair turns to ringlets when he's sweaty. When he's dry it's more wavy. His previous owners (not the one I just bought him from) , thought he was a Freisan. Uh, aren't Freisans supposed to be black? Anyway, he was in a very bad home a few months ago. The details make me want to cry. However, he is in a beautiful place now and seems to be a happy boy!

Sorry, did not read through the posts before I asked the questions you already answered.
I have had my guy for three weeks and miss him terribly on the days I cannot be with him. Just ran out there tonight to get a quick pat in!
Very excited for you!

I know how that is. I got my first horse when I was 18 yr old, I think for all 18 yrs leading up to that I had been begging for one. My dad even said to me the day I got him was "Here, take the cash and shut up about wanting a horse!" but I was on too much of a high to even let that get me down :)

Even to this day when I add another addition I get all giddy inside like its Christmas Morning. Congrats and I wish you all the luck!

I had a Curly for awhile-he had a thick mane on both sides of his neck, & it naturally fell into dreadlocks. I'd sometimes comb it out, but it would all be back by the next day-he was nearly black, very stocky & did look like a mini-Freisian. I do believe some Freisian's aren't black-maybe someone will chime in on that.
