Bree, Fred...and Mandy.

Some DFers have already met Mandy on FB, but she'll be new to a lot of you.

Fred and Bree are doing well. Bree has grown to an astounding 12.2 hh.

Fred is just...Fred.

Bree:

She's also turning grey.

*more*

Fred:

His most recent beauty shot. He had just taken a mud bath.

I was picking out his feet.

and Mandy.

She's one of the two I just hauled down from Oklahoma.

She's not looking as polished now.

ChrissyBz · 10-12-2009, 03:22 PM

Here she is settling into the paddocks at the quarantine farm.

Plus I have one more but she's not really mine. I bought her for someone else here. She's the other one I hauled down from OK.

ChrissyBz · 10-12-2009, 03:24 PM

Amira

She's a lovely mare though. Great temperament.

Renoman · 10-12-2009, 04:38 PM

Well Fred looks simply stunning after his mud bath. The grass on his head just adds so much to his already good looks. He looks pretty damn happy with himself.

Mandy with the long blonde flowing mane... is gorgeous.

ChrissyBz · 10-12-2009, 05:23 PM

I can't wait till she clears quarantine and can come home. I need to kick Juan'a ass to get her stall ready.

Shaina · 10-12-2009, 05:55 PM

Getting sucked into the Arab world more and more, eh Beez?

ChrissyBz · 10-12-2009, 06:05 PM

You have NO idea. >.<

ChrissyBz · 10-15-2009, 05:06 PM

Super happy ATM.

Sometime in the last couple days made a breakthrough with Fred. He's following me now on a loose lead and is watching me when I'm working around him to see if he needs to move for me. <--- This is a really really good sign that he's beginning to trust me. Who knew mucking stalls could be such a great thing?

He's been so much better about his feet for months, but now he anticipates and lifts his foot for you when you're ready to pick it out.

Mandy is gorgeous looking and the others are pretty! The one looks like an Arabian but what are the others?

ChrissyBz · 10-18-2009, 06:32 PM

Mandy and Amira are both PB Arabian, Fred is a Mutt that's part Holsteiner, Bree is PB Highway Horse.

Spirit_of_Cotons · 10-18-2009, 06:42 PM

They're pretty! So there are mutts in the horse world, I thought they were called something different. Hm. What do you mean by highway horse?

ChrissyBz · 10-18-2009, 07:05 PM

Bree was caught running loose on the highway Easter Saturday 2008. No one ever came to look for her. She was somewhere between 8-10 months old and is growing(sort of) nicely.

Here's the original thread. Seems like I moved the pics.

Omg, you are soooo lucky to have such beautiful horses! Your Arabs are simply stunnin.
My last horse was called Bree too! But he looked more like Fred than your Bree.

ChrissyBz · 10-19-2009, 04:41 PM

Thanks!

Bree is actually short for Brisa (Spanish for Breeze) because she blew in off the highway.

Rough_Collies2008 · 10-21-2009, 01:11 PM

Chrissy, Your herd has multiplied!!! Wohoooo!!!!

I can't believe Brisa is a gray...didn't see that coming! She looks so beautiful, and boy has she grown!

Fred looks fantastic! Love the picture of him sleeping in his stall! He looks like he has filled out quite a bit since I remembered last!

Mandy and Amira are absolutely GORGEOUS! Congratulations!!!

ChrissyBz · 10-21-2009, 01:16 PM

Hey RC, how are ya? And all of yours? Doing well? Horses and Dogs?

Rough_Collies2008 · 10-21-2009, 02:08 PM

Hi Chrissy, Everything is going well here. Hours have been up at work, so I have been rather busy.

The dogs and horses are all doing great. I don't know if you saw Angel's last thread in May, but she is doing fantastic! She did go through a short time period where she was having random seizures every two weeks or so(she only had 3, and then they stopped). She hasn't had one for a few months now though....and she didn't have enough where the vet could do much. So it is now just wait and see.

Here is a link to that thread:

The rest are all doing great, and are keeping me busy!

With the horses, I do have a new member of the herd.

She is a 2008 ApHC Filly:

She's a hoot:

How are you? Your barn looks beautiful...that really finished nice!!!

ChrissyBz · 10-21-2009, 02:59 PM

Thanks we're just working on a new stable(outdoor 4 stall) so I will have enough room.

Angel looks AMAZING!

Oh, and the new filly. What a sweetheart! What's her name?
