lol 2kitties...

lbaker -- I don't quite understand...studied?? My little sister, my parents, and my sister's trainer have all looked at the horse and my sister has ridden him a few times. She knows the girl that owns him pretty well...which, in turn, means she knows Cayman pretty well. I understand that there are plenty of horses in need of homes at rescues, and I'm not saying that they aren't good horses [please don't get me wrong]...however, Nellie knows this horse, as does her trainer. Also, this horse has all the experience and training to compete in some of the higher rated shows my sister rides in.

If it makes you feel any better, though, the owner of her barn rescued 4 Morgan horses a few months ago that had been badly neglected earlier. They were just starting to "retrain" them last time I was there. My sister just loves them...they are the sweetest things.

No one in my family has anything against adopting a rescue...after all, both Barrett and Moose were from shelters. However, Cayman is "just the horse she needs."

I really don't know, this is just the explanation she gave me...I'm really not involved in this at all.
