Happy Veteran's Day! Wanted to give you a quick update on Fancy. She is doing superbly. I attached a picture of me riding her!!! She is very balanced at the trot, her transitions to/from walk and trot are so easy and she learns so quickly and willingly. We are starting some canter work under saddle and she's progressing nicely. I do a lot of longe work and she is very responsive! She stands like a lady for the farrier, vet, when mounting and bathing and nothing bothers her. I hope to be showing her in the spring in Intro A/B. Thank you for my lifetime horse - you have a phenomenal breeding program - and pray all is well with all of you! Please keep in touch!
Vr, Theresa

George, Fredericka and Robin,
Hope your Sunday was a blessed one! I wanted to let you know that Fancy is doing superbly! My trainer was on vacation this week so I worked Fancy on my own and after light lunging, I rode her - since I was by myself I limited my ride to about 10 minutes of walking and trotting. She is a love - she just stands at the mounting block, is patient and smart. Her trot is LOVELY!!! It is balanced and so easy to ride. I will get some new pictures as she has a new bit - a mylar loose ring snaffle that she has taken to. The pictures I sent you earlier were with a happy mouth snaffle and she kept getting her tongue over the bar - thus her high head carriage. This one fits her very well. I cannot thank you enough for letting me own Fancy - she is a joy!
Take care! Theresa

I wanted to let you know how Fancy is progressing: SUPERBLY!!!!! Every day I am amazed at her intelligence, kindness, athleticism and demeanor. I'm lunging her over cavelletti's now and my trainer is riding her several times a week. The equine dentist came out Friday and she has no wolf teeth so there is no interference w/a bit so we'll begin bridle work ASAP. She has adjusted beautifully to everything - she was a doll for the farrier, for her shots, worming, the dentist, she bathes, saddling is a piece of cake...... She's a little unbalanced at the canter but she's still a youngster so that will come. I am not the least bit concerned. I have been remiss w/taking pictures and will get some to you w/in the next few weeks. When I go to the stables, I'm concentrating on handling her and just forget to take pictures. But, she is beautiful! Everyone who encounters her is impressed and I gladly pass the kuddos to your breeding program. You all breed spectacular animals! And, I was pleased to see Princess Contessa sold! I'm always perusing the website to keep tabs on what you all are doing. Have a wonderful Sunday! God Bless! Theresa
