TOMMY!!!! I GOT ANOTHER HORSE! OMFG!!!!

Not much time to write, I gotta try and contact somene at the paddock to let them know I just said yes to a free horse and will need to book a private yard! This is Tom, or Tommy as I'm already calling him. Friend just called me from Geelong, this little guy is only 3 years old, he's a QH X Arab X Percheron. His owner has run into financial difficulty and they are getting rid of their 3 horses. Their other 2 (including Tommy's dam, Arab x Percy) have been rehomed but no one has wanted Tom and he was to go to the market mid next week. Not reg'ed, unbroken, and not in the best condition I've ever seen a horse. No points for guessing where he'd end up!!! Rachel was really upset as she really likes this boy, says he's super friendly, just a clumsy dumb-ass colt. YES COLT! NOT GELDED! FARK!!!!! Getting my vet to come out and geld him next week the day after he arrives. Rachel can't afford another horse (she has 5), so I've stepped up. HOLY SHIT I HAVE ANOTHER HORSE!!!!! I reckon break him in and yeah, I'll have 3 HORSES to maintain! SHIT SHIT SHIT! But look at his FACE! How can you say no to this FACE?!?!?!?



Sorry, only photo I have at this stage. MORE SOON!!!

UPDATE: APRIL FOOLS, YA BUNCHA OF DAGS!!!!!

hehehehheeee, sorry Madz. I'd love to have another horse but I just can't afford it, and def don't have the funds and time required with a youngster. Plus I don't seem to bounce any more, these days it's more of a SPLAT, so I'm not too keen on going through the fireworks and dragon-fire that is training a youngster again. I don't think I'd be lucky to have another one as forgiving as Desi was either! You CAn buy him for me if you want: http://www.horsedeals.com.au/horses-for-sale.php?doSrch=doSrch&horseTypes_id=18 he's in Vic, Redbank (not sure where that is). Broken in at age 2 with clear signs of going through a growth spurt, little fella would need a year or so to undo that damage and just be a pony!

lol no thank you. I have my fwee year old who I am riding tomorrow (she was ready for me last week, but time didn't work out) who is going PERFECTLY even going on trail rides on her own! So that should be enough for now. She's only being ridden for the next six weeks when she gets home then she's chucked in the paddock to grow until December when she turns four.
She's gorgeous, wait until you see her!
