Hey Ya'll

PaganRider · 02-04-2008, 09:44 PM

Hey everyone! Just thought I would introduce myself. My name is Careen. I am a freshmen in college. I have been riding since i was in third grade and have been taking lessons since eigth. I am getting a horse here soon. He is being given to me by a guy at our local feed store. My first horse! of my own any way. lol...he is a three year old quarter horse stallion. (Don't worry he will be gelded as soon as i get the money). He is chestnut with a large blaze. He is a rescue horse so he has no papers or registration. He has no known training and is underweight. As soon as I get pictures i will post them. i am trying to decide what to name him but i have to see him temperment before i can choose a name. My first horse is a rescue stallion. I gonna have my hands full but I can handle I had a very good instructor who allowed me out at her place practically every day all day teaching me the ropes. But i have never delt with a rescue horse so any info would be highly appreciated! Thanks ya'll!
