Another PMU foal makes it to GP and gets his mommy her gold

[Tsavo]

At this point it is probably a shorter list of PMU foals who DON'T get to GP and DON'T get their mommies their gold.

I have seen video of this rider in clinics on a private site and she is absolutely fantastic. Just super. The clinician is there just praising what he is seeing. So happy she works with rescues.

I wish I could find a PMU foal like this.

That is Super!
She certainly made a few right decisions with is big boy!

So nice to read stories like this, thanks for posting!

It is nice that CotH is highlighting the success of various breeds at the dressage finals.

Mist pmu are under the North American Equine Ranching Council.

I think you are too specific about breed to look amongst the pmu foals.

I have had six foals from manitoba Canada which I gentled trained and sold. They were very different in type. But all good natured.

Breeds requirements would obviously be out the window if I could get a GP prospect PMU mare.

you would also have to get a weanling, they sell them as weanlings, did you try this farm?

http://www.ravineranchsporthorses.com/s ... page=mares most of the mares are 1/4 draft, which would make the foal only an 1/8 draft, percheron mostly, but if you looked through the mares you might find one whose foal you would be interested in.

i would warn that of the pmu foals i have worked with, i would say perhaps one had real GP potential but none of them were warmblood x.

anyway, peruse the NAERIC site for links and information, you might find something that interests you

for the most part its not worth going through a rescue, they will not sell with outright ownership, and can be a bit nutty about placement. Some can. I had a person whose horse was "reclaimed" by the rescue once it was a second level horse and had some value. I know for a fact there was nothing wrong with how the horse was cared for.

I have also worked with several PMU youngsters and agree that they were all very different in physical type, movement, temperament, etc, which makes sense.

Thanks for sharing those links, SF, love to see "nontraditional breeds" getting show cased!

Wow thanks for the advice, Chisamba. I was also thinking about contacting the rider in the article to see if she could find me a mare since she does so much rescue. I would absolutely love to have a rescue horse if it worked out. But I don't want weanling. I want a riding horse now.
