"Geriatric Park"
(As our farm is affectionately
known as)
I have a weak spot for the elderly
minis. Several have joined our herd over the years to ensure a permanent
home in their retirement. These special horses will remain as part of our
family for the rest of their lives.
These are our beloved resident
minis aged over 20 yrs old.

Monteith's Dixie
Born:
April 10, 1982

Dixie is a gorgeous mare, even
as she shows tell tale signs of age with her greying face.
She is one of my favorite broodmares.

little show mare, Seabloom Coloured In Crayon.

Dogwood Acres.
She also has a very impressive
AMHA show record in driving and halter. Dam of a National champion driving
horse.
She is enjoying her retirement
with lots of love and attention. Daphne is loved just as much as
my own.
