Calissi and Galileo left for their new homes in Germany this morning. It's a big relief to hear that they have arrived safely, and that both ponies traveled calmly with no concerns en route.
After all these years of breeding horses I still find it hard to say goodbye, particularly to older ponies like Calissi, as we usually sell our youngstock after weaning, before I fall hopelessly in love with them !
However, I'm very thankful that both ponies have gone to lovely homes. Galileo is joining Equinox de Kingmaker who we sold 2 years ago. Calissi will be broken to ride over the Winter, then aimed at ridden TREC.
Calissi is the first ROAN Dales Pony to set hoof in Germany, so she's a trailblazer for the roan representatives of her breed.
We wish Calissi and Galileo's new owners Alexandra and Carmen many years of fun and success with their Kingmaker ponies.
