Beautiful Arabian

Confetti was our family pet and trail horse for over a year.  She recently was sold to a wonderful family who’s daughter has fallen in love with her.  I couldn’t have asked for a better home for this mare.  She truly is a special horse and deserves the best home possible.

When I first saw Confetti, there was no way I would have bought her if it hadn’t been for my daughter who immediately saw her potential.  I have to admit, my daughter has a very good eye for horses.  Confetti was the prettiest little thing out in the pasture and even though she was hard to catch, she was forgiven.  Afterall, she was out with at least ten other horses all running around in circles expecting to get fed and she was just trying to keep from getting kicked.    Once we did catch her and take her to the barn I was ready to walk away.  She acted like a wild horse while being tacked up and rode.  I was sure the young man showing her to us was going to get bucked off.   But after awhile, Confetti settled down and again I had to forgive her knowing she hadn’t been ridden in what must have been years.  And she was in a barn full of show horses which included many studs.

We took her home and my daughter spent a lot of time grooming her, walking her, talking to her and forgiving her the ‘mistakes’ she made in ground manners.   My daughter finally rode her enough to get Confetti comfortable with being under saddle again and it was uphill from there.  Since then she became a wonderful trail horse that would walk, trot or canter on command and took my daughter on some wonderfully fun rides.  My daughter also took the time to teach Confetti a lot of moves such as side pass, half pass, move off the haunches and forehand.  All in all we had a wonderful time with Confetti and are once again thrilled to have found her a home where she will continue to be loved, groomed and a part of a loving family.
