    [RC] horse for handicapped... - Linda


        I am so proud of a little horse I own.... yesterday she went into training for the local handicapped program.   This little arab mare came to me when she was 2 and in the past 3 years had not really developed into a horse to be used for endurance.  I had started and ridden her only lightly but had done a lot of groundwork with her.  I had heard that the local program was in need of a couple of younger small horses as several of theirs are getting up in years and having some back/lameness issues and need to be retired.  So they came out and did an evaluation on my little girl and found her to be what they were needing.  I think it's great for them and great for the horse... she is really wanting to have a job.  But.. if it shouldn't work out they're going to call me and I'll bring her back home.   Several of my friends and clients volunteer with the program so I'm sure I'll get updates.
