That's sweet of you to say that.
Its hard to believe that in 2 days Saber will have joined our family a year ago.
He's come a long way.
When we got him he was obese and when he wouldn't get his way he'd rear.
But he had an open mind, an inclination to trust and a good heart.
I had had, had trained & worked with big horses - Appies, Arabs, QH stallion, mustangs, Belgian X, TB/QH, Saddlebred, TB
but he's our 1st mini.
I'll admit too that he was the 1st mini we went to see when we decided we wanted one.
I honestly didn't think this lil horse (that was advertised in the Pennysaver - divorce sale) was going to meet my standards.
I went there expecting him not to be my horse.
But no matter the testing & evaluations I threw at him he continued to surprise me.
My hubby said he immediately saw a connection between this stallion & I.
It was a week later that we added him to our family.
I have not regretted the choice at all - he's a great horse.
Loves to travel, good with people & dogs, sharp & willing to learn
and a bomb could probably go off behind him and I bet he'd hardly flinch.
He is so stable.
One outing my hubby was holding him and a tree limb from overhead fell about 2 feet from them.
It scared my hubby to death.. Saber took notice but didn't even jump.
He is a card too.. instead of going into his stall after his outing today he made a bee line into the house as the door was open.
He had to maneuver around a few fans & squeeze by the whelping box in the livingroom, and was by the bathroom before he was ushered outside.
He is fun.
