Fancy is leaving you a vote with a little humour to start your wonderful weekend!!!
FANCY'S PERCEPTIONS:
Dear Horse Owner:
Are you experiencing too many second and third
finishes behind enferior horses at horse shows?
During a trail ride, does your horse forget
everything he was bred to do?
Well, this simple chain letter is meant to bring
relief and happiness to you. Unlike most chain
letters, it doesn't cost any money.
Simply send a copy to six other horse owners who
are dissatisfied with the way that their horse is
behaving. Also, bundle up your horse and send
him/her to the horse owner at the top of list. Do not
use a return adress or the post office may try to
contact you.
In one week you should receive 16,436 horses, and
at least one of them should be a keeper.
Have faith in this. Do not break the chain. One
owner broke the chain and got his own horse back.
Good Luck!Come visit me, FANCY Walk N That Way Pray 4 O.K. City Families, COWBOY & TRIGGER vote HOTM: Rose & Sterl May, BUTTERCUP & GOLDIE vote HOTM Casey & Gizmo & Fancy's 2012 HC Members Veterans Day Trail Ride!.

Our family decorated the tree yesterday, my baby boy really enjoyed this! But I couldn't find my outside decorations:( Fancy was so sweet when I went to feed her. She rears and twirls around when she sees me coming in her direction. And I wondered if it was a test of "Whose in Charge", I discovered by her actions when I get to her, she only misses me and wants me near. Because when I get there she is submisive and sooo sweet, when I get to her she gently blows into my nostrils, which means she accepts me. And I blow back, then puts her head close to me and she is just sooo sweet.
How does your horse greet you? Here is a "Christmas day will be here before you know it" vote.Come visit me, FANCY Walk N That Way Pray 4 O.K. City Families, COWBOY & TRIGGER vote HOTM: Rose & Sterl May, BUTTERCUP & GOLDIE vote HOTM Casey & Gizmo & Fancy's 2012 HC Members Veterans Day Trail Ride!.

Vote 62 MADDUX from Petite Fleur
Hi handsome Maddux from petite Fleur the stubborn mare!
Petite Fleur has tender feet and needs some Easy boots ! She was not in a good frame of mind for riding today so it went rather poor for ME and HER! I see my farrier Friday so I hope to get her chipped hoof taken care of and order some Easy boots. Other than that she is an angel and I have a lot to learn from HER! I am disappointed but there is always tomorrow and another way!Come visit me, DARLING♥plan to be with him December!, ANKA♥THANKS SO MUCH 4 HOTD 5/18/13 & Angel Petite Fleur&gals,VOTE Sterl May HOTM!.

Vote 58 MADDUX from petite Fleur
Hi there! I am so sorry about the rain rot! I think if this is going to be a problem and you or a reliable person at the stable can put a light weight water proof and breathable coat on him that will help him out! Because being locked up in a stall all day stinks! PF likes the rain and I just brush her a lot after to get any fungus off her that may show up later! I also do her hooves whether they are too dry or if she is in wet conditions too long I put on a anti fungal hoof treatment. Hope I could tell you something useful!Come visit me, DARLING♥plan to be with him December!, ANKA♥THANKS SO MUCH 4 HOTD 5/18/13 & Angel Petite Fleur&gals,VOTE Sterl May HOTM!.

Vote 57 MADDUX from petite Fleur
Missed hearing from you Playing the Field! How has your week-end been? Mom was sick but doing great now!
Here is a Sunday vote from Petite Fleur ! We had a beautiful Sunday outing! Since I have to wait till my hoof chips in the front are filed down I went on a 30 minute walk and got ot free roam graze again in the field with the walnut trees! Mom & Dad had a picnic lunch and I kept walking over and trying to steal their sandwiches. They finally gave in and gave me some of the good French bread! All in all I had lots of quality time today and tomorrow (if the rain does not come back!) we are tacking up and just riding in the pasture on the soft ground. I am such a lucky mare!Come visit me, DARLING♥plan to be with him December!, ANKA♥THANKS SO MUCH 4 HOTD 5/18/13 & Angel Petite Fleur&gals,VOTE Sterl May HOTM!.

THANK you from the bottom of PF's big heart (and mine!) for putting her on your page also! YES, I know Maddux's story and reading it again just makes me weep at how these lovely God given friends can be forced to run at an age before their bones are fully mature! He is lucky he did not snap his legs at 2 years of age!
