Bo Jangles
#216
Bay Arabian gelding. Appx.
14.3 hands. Appx. 5 years old. This little
guy is really cute and very nice. He did not seem to be high strung
at all. He
rides very well, english or western.
I was in
a hurry to get that poor
thing out of there. In my haste, I neglected to notice while on
his premises that the horse had strangles. I brought him to the
new stables and learned within the first 20 minutes of his plight.
It was lucky to find it so soon, he went immediately into quarantine
and he remains there until Christmas day. But, Gail, he's doing
SO WELL and the vet is pleased. He and I (the horse and I, not
the vet) are in love. He is just a beauty and what a little dickens
he is! I love his naughty little style. He consumes my clothes
while I'm raking the stall and I walk away full of loving slobber
and green slime!
His hooves,
as you had probably noticed, were atrocious. The farrier fixed
them up and now he carries himself much more proudly! His name
is Bo Jangles. I will provide before and after pictures for possible
inclusion to the TIER site. It is very compelling to see how he
looked when he came to me and now!
Thank you
for all you've done. God bless you !
Update 2/26/01
- My little one, Bo Jangles, has me wrapped around his little
hoof. Oh my God, is he a character!
I had a horse a few years ago who almost killed me and my boyfriend
on different occasions. I had never had fear of horses until I
had him. I haven't been able to feel the same about the horses
I've owned since him. But my Bo Jangles has taken that out of
me. Since the moment I saw him, No. 216, on your site, there was
just something about him. He and I are riding now! Although he
has every bad habit in the book down pat, I know he wants to learn
to be a better riding horse and to please me.
His best friend and next door neighbor is Tyler, my sister's horse!
They go frolicking in the arena together. Just by the expressions
on his face, I know exactly what he's thinking, and I think he
knows what I'm thinking, too. I just LOVE HIM SO MUCH, Gail!
In August we're all (the Happy Hoofers, I and Toni) going out
to the back side of Big Bear riding in the hills for an extended
weekend. I can't wait!
