We're almost back to normalcy!! He reinjured his hock when he and I had a "thoroughbred episode" in the woods near the barn. Weight is doing GREAT, though. We entered our first show a few months ago while he was still very thin and won a 6th in equitation. Go us! |
| HISTORY OF YOUR HORSE: |
Registered as Parklane Believer, he was bred by E. Jan Davidian of Oklahoma and was sold at the Heritage sale to Jeff Pope. Jeff had a partner in the racing business who started in thoroughbreds but didn't make any money at it, so Parker ended up in the back pasture, neglected, dirty and covered in rain rot. It was when I traded a horse that was worth something to the partner (and therefor wouldn't be neglected) for Parker simply because I wanted something taller. Parker ended up on 264 then had a Baytril reaction that gave him a seizure (mishandled by the barn management). So, after a month of daily care and a lot of prayer, the race has been patiently trained out of him, and he's still sound. Now, once he looks ok again, I look forward to showing my boy.
I now also have a bay mare named Delilah. She is registered as Reasonable Avenue and is currently building her confidence with me. Our trainer is convinced we'll be the next eventing pair to beat. |

I'm a girl with a dream and a beat up horse. Together, we will take the world by storm.
Recently, Parker has gained a big sister. Delilah (registered as Reasonable Avenue) is another thoroughbred ex-racehorse whose heart is more damaged than the rest of her. Building her confidence and building his physicality heal all three of us.

I hope your horse is doing well now and you can start riding soon. I have been laid up myself with total knee replacment. I am ready to start riding again. I hope your Parker gets well soon. Vicki
