| Miss Liberty Click on the name above for pedigree |
| Boy does this one have a story. She 's a wonderful solid foxtrotting mare with a great pedigree, wonderful gait, gorgeous build, and black underneath the grey. However, she came through a sale to a friend of mine, and was not represented accurately. My friend could no longer take care of her, so here she is. What makes her special?? She's completely blind at 5 years of age. |
| She was put through the sale as having a "slight spot on her right eye", and medicine to accompany her. When my friend got her, both eyes were white, and the mare was almost completely blind. She requires a special area that she feels safe in, and does incredibly well for her situation. The biggest issue was trust. She had no idea who I was, or what I was doing with her. |
| She finally understands now, and trusts me. New situations are still scary, but this mare rides well under saddle. I guess I was lucky in getting a very nice mare that fits the breeding program, because she's not going anywhere. I wouldn't trust others to care for her in the way that she needs Pictured above is her first foal by Danney's Pride of Princess, and I'm happy to have Liberty as a broodmare here if she produces like this. This little girl is named after an old blues song "Eyesight To The Blind". And she brought eyesight to her mommy when she was born. I've never seen a mare's world revolve around a foal so much. And, she is one of the best foal sitters we have. She barely draws the line at nursing the others, but you can find her every night standing guard over the weanlings as they sleep. There's a great irony in it since she's blind, but her ears never miss a thing. She's currently open, as we debate what stallion to breed her to. |
