Introduction to my horses

Posted by Melinda_Skylark on 10/30/2007 on Melinda_Skylark's blog

Neo- My lovable showjumper that I have owned for almost five years now. He's a 16.1 grey TB gelding. He's very prissy and girly, but will jump anything he's pointed at. The most reliable horse I've ever owned, i can ride him with absoultely nothing and feel comfortable. I've even jumped him 3 ft. bareback with just a halter!! He's probably the most amazing horse I have ever met!

Rex- My big dummy. He's about 16hh, a bay TB gelding. He is not the brightest crayon in the box, but he is very lovable and basically goes along with everything. He's a babysitter and my younger brother is learning how to ride on him. I've had him for almost two years now. He's a retired showhorse.

Elmo- My rescued Belgian. He's about 17hh and he's 30 years old. He was a horse that I practically learned how to ride on and then was sold only to be rediscovered years later. When I heard what condition he was in I dropped everything and went out with a trailer and got him. He's extremely smart and knows how to open doors, gates, latches, lids, and pretty much anything without a lock on it. I've had Elmo for almost a year now.

Mowgli- the newest edition to my family, I've only had him just over a week. He is a 4 month old paint horse foal. He is the smartest foal I have ever worked with and is already halter trained, will walk on a lead, can be brushed, will pick up all of his hooves, can be fly-sprayed, blanketed, and is currently learning about clippers(and doing exceptionally well!). He is going to be a hunter or jumper when he grows up!
