Moon "Dancer", a recent adoptee, is from a nearby farm relocating to Florida. As part of the move, they are unable to take their horses. Two went to another farm. Dancer came to us. She is Arabian/Saddlebred mix. Approx 18 years old. Dancer is somewhere in the middle of our horses by age - the Mustangs being the youngest (12) and June Royal being the oldest (32).
Dancer and our pony, Starburst, became fast friends - within days they were grazing next to each other on pasture. Now, Starburst does not like to be without her. That is a problem since Dancer is skinny and Starburst is fat - requiring two separate feeding schedules.
Dancer seems to like grain/feed, a lot. And she is easy to handle. Her coloring is almost identical to the pony but it is easy to tell them apart...tall and skinny....short and fat!!!
As with any animal we adopt, we hope to do justice to previous owners for all the care they put into their animals, and for the animals - to give them all the freedom, space, food, and shelter we can provide for comfort and longevity. As the previous owner stated, "Our horses seem to be very happy." We feel their happiness - and believe Dancer will be very happy here too!
