Today was the Mt. Hope ohio horse auction. My dad and i left around 10 this morning and got there around noon. Didnt see to many horses we liked so i went to look at the mini's (since there wasnt many there when we first came in). There were some really good ones. There was this black gelding and palimino mare in the corner by the door that i was in love w/. They were a little skiddish. My dad said he would buy them if they didnt go for more then $200 a peice. So we hung around untill around 5:30 when they started selling the mini's/ponies. I spent most of my time giving water to this mini. I didnt care to much for the mare ..but the gelding i fell in love w/. Well it came time for them to go through and they sent them through together. Little boys riding them ..well they sold the mare for $320 ..but that didnt bother me. We didnt get her. Then they put the gelding through ...we got him for $250. He is really sweet ...leads good. Could be a potention halter show horse. Just needs some muscle put on him.
He is a 2 (or 3) year old black gelding. Broke to ride and green Broke to drive. Not registered but his father is AMHA registered. We had one heck of a time loading him. When we succeeded in getting him into the trailer he lost it and started jumping and rearing. Luckly i sweezed out of it but he kept jumping and putting his legs through the bars. So we had to tie him down so he couldnt bc we knew he would break his legs if we had not. So he layed down all the way home. Were heading back to Mt. Hope sometime next week to get a show halter and a saddle. We are starting a business where we give pony rides at partys/reunions ext. Doing some internet adds and making some signs and hanging up locally. We are going to get a couple more over the next couple month. prob wont do anything big untill after the fair starts and i get into school and it gets going along.
Stuff i got today for our first show.
-mane&tail show shine
-small facial brush
-horse/pony eye drops
-Hoof Sparkle glitter paint
-Hoof paint remover
-New blue halter to show off his eyes.
i will post pics of him my new one soon.. We are naming him zeus i think. I really love that name and am 100% that is what it is going to be. He does need a little work w/ some stuff but nothing to big. He needs a bath (which im dreading after seeing how coco reacted). Next two weeks of my life are going to be all about 2 little miniaturehorses. Not complainging
