OMG, OMG, OMG!
I have to come out , this is just too much: My name is Barbara, I live in
New****t News, Va and have been lurking for years, claiming to be computer
challenged .....I have a Gold Luck baby!!!!!!!!
Gunther GWRI (aka Gunner ) is a five yearold Hannoverian/Tb cross,
branded
Oldenburg .
Since the old man really stamps them, Gunner is no exception, chestnut ,
blaze, a little white on three feet.Took him to Harvest Moon Dressage in
Williamston, NC on 15 and 16 Nov. . His bridle# was 51, there are pics of
us on the WNC photography site . Like I said, I am challenged. Wish I
could
post it somehow.This was his second recognized show , the first one was in
Williamsburg, VA this past August, we did Training level.
I got Gunner at 18 months and have trained him with help from Kathy Rowse,
my instructor . We are schooling 2nd level, showing 1st. She loves his
gaits
and thinks he has great potential. I just love him.
Anyway, love to read all the posts. I am German, so I probably write a
little differently, but it's been good enough to get by .so far.
Bye,
Barbara
