New Zealand




The first pic is Duchesses(see below) daughter Dragonfly, she is so fat that she has to be stabled over night so she wont eat!!! But she is one of the cutest horses I know! She will ignore you, but as soon as you have a carrot or an apple shes all over you :)

The next pic is me on a horse called Duchess. She is a minature horse just smaller than cocoa if you know him. Before she came to the fun farm stay (where we stayed) she had been abused and hit. So she would kick any human who came near her or try to bite them. If someone was riding her she would buck them off. However Ross (the guy who runs the farm stay) taught her to trust humans and that not all are mean abusive. When I rode her, she was pretty much perfect! We mainly walked around the paddock but on my last day we did a bit of troting.She is a smart horse and a very very dirty horse. When I had finished brushing her after a ride (to cold to hose down) she would find the muddiest place and roll, All that hard work for nothing!!
Thanx for reading :]
