Full Celebration! Rosie the English Dale


On that Friday, April 24th, my second lesson of that eventful day was with Rosie, a very rare English Dale. She was beautiful. She looked like a Hailee-sized version of a Friesan. Her trainer, Leslie, just quickly and efficiently did a beautiful job of braiding her lovely mane and forelock and putting on ear protectors and so here you see her, lovely and ready for a drive! Rosie is such a rare creature that when she was taken to a breed show, judges from England were so very excited to see her. They are thinking about breeding her. And I have to say, I hope they do! When we were on our drive, Rosie shouted out girly opinions to the stallion on the next farm over, and he called longingly for her. Their vocal flirtation was pretty humorous!
