For
as long as I can remember, I have loved horses. I began taking
lessons when I was seven, and ever since then, even before then, I've
wanted my own horse, but we didn't have the room for one. Four years ago we
moved to the country and bought a little farm. My parents said that when
I turned thirteen that I could start looking for a horse. So, of course, the
minute I turned thirteen, I went straight to Dreamhorse.com and began my
search. Now two years later, and fifteen years old, I have Sasha!
It all started in late January. I was getting so frustrated because for
two years I had been looking. I had looked at almost fifteen horses, and
although that's not too many, it sure seemed like it!! So I entered my
"normal" search and pressed submit. As I was scrolling down I saw this
beautiful picture! It was Sasha! Her full name, by the way,
is Splash of Rainier.
She sounded perfect, a hunter/jumper with show experience. I was in awe
of her beauty and instantly e-mailed her owner. After talking some, we
arranged a day and came to see Sasha! She was perfect! I loved her right
off the bat. So we decided to get a vet check. The first one went well
until we found something in her coffin joint, and I was devastated, but
more upset. After some persuasion, we got a follow-up vet check, and
they said that she would be just fine! So not long after that, we
brought her home! Ever since then, I have been enjoying her to the
fullest! Soon I plan to begin showing her in some hunter/jumper
schooling shows.
She is the funniest horse. Every day at a certain time she takes her
afternoon naps. You can even sit on her while she's laying down... and
it's always impossible to get her up. Recently we introduced her to our
other horse, Capuccino, and although Sasha is the alpha mare, they love
each other. I love Sasha soooo much and she will live with us for the
rest of her life.
