Laura Lee is a special young mare that is sired by our two-time AHR ‘National Champion Stallion’ and two-time AHR ‘Stallion of the Year’, Arno van het Nieshof. Laura Lee’s dam is sired by the well-known and gold classified Aristocrat TOF.
Laura Lee is light-years ahead of her age in experience as she has already been at youth camp for a week where she was ridden by a junior youth rider in such disciplines as English, and Western and even taken over and through over trail obstacles. She also attended the 2007 Buckeye Haflinger show and was shown in the Halter, Showmanship and Trail classes by a junior youth exhibitor and placed quite well including 3rd place in both trail and showmanship. If that is not enough, Laura Lee was ridden at the 2007 AHR National Show by a junior youth rider and earned several ribbons there, including a 2nd place in the walk-trot equitation class! These are some great accomplishments for such a young filly!
UPDATE from Laura Lee’s new owner in Tennessee:
“Laura is doing wonderful!!! I am very happy with her. She is a lot of fun around the farm. We are convinced we have been sold a puppy in a horse body!! When we are working in the barn or in the pasture, she is following us every step and sticking her nose into everything. My husband says it takes him twice as long to get things done because he has to stop and give her attention so much. We have a 10- month old lab mix pup that we are fostering for a few weeks, and they are buddies. He goes into the field and plays with her. She will gently chase him at a jog trot and then he will circle around and grab her tail. When she has had enough she will just start grazing and ignore him until he gives up and goes away. She is never mean or aggressive towards him. We love her!”
