My Horse Profile

Southern Contessa

About Me

Active within 1570 Days

I am from Pendleton, SC and I've been a Club Horse member for 4 years, 6 months and 2 days

Nicknames: Tessa is her nickname. I named her Southern Contessa when she was adopted.

Age: 17 years old

Gender: Mare

Breed: Thoroughbred

Height: 16.3h

Color: Red Bay

Type of Riding: We are in training right now but Tessa and I go trail riding as much as we can.

My Horse's Achievements: I adopted her in Feb. 2008 We were told she was Green Broke. I found a trainer and we have learned together. We have come a long way since then. We have gone to local shows and brought home 3rd Place Ribbons. Tessa and I have learned lots of things over the past Summer.

My Horse's Favorite Treat: She loves Nicker Makers, Gala Apples and Carrots

My Horse's Favorite Things To Do: She loves attention of any kind. She loves to hug you with her neck.

Pet Peeves: She doesn't like to be pushed. When she's had enough pushing she will let you know with a high toss of the head.

My Horse's motto: There is a new adventure down every trail.

How We Met

She was rescued from a auction sale. She was starved and had rain rot on her back. There was something in her eyes the first time I saw her. We were meant for each other..
