Nearly one year to the day that I brought Dollar home, he found his forever home. Unfortunately Michele's life took a turn that prevented her from committing to Dollar so he was advertised on Kijii. The ad invited folks to spend time with him to make sure he was a horse they would enjoy and he would come with a money back policy that if they weren't happy, they were welcome to bring him back - no questions asked. He has been gone for approximately 6 weeks and we received a lovely note from his new owner just the other day. Alf wanted us to know how much the whole family loves Dollar and that they have been happily riding him every other day. He still has trouble with the trailer but they are continuing to work on that.
All I ever wanted was to find Dollar a home where he would be loved and appreciated. His new home is in Priddis so hopefully I`ll get a chance to visit him.
I made the decision to donate the profit of the purchase price to the Dare to Dream Horse Rescue organization to thank them for supporting my teaching efforts.
This situation was a win-win for so many folks. The original owner of Dollar now has horses she and her daughter are enjoying; I experienced the joy of helping Dollar become a reliable riding companion; His new owners are extremely happy and proud to own him; and Dare to Dream benefited from his sale. Most importantly, Dollar is loved, happy and well cared for.
During Stampede I had the opportunity to listen to William Shatner talk about his love the American Saddlebred horse. I was not surprised to learn that the breed was very popular during war times because of their incredible bravery and friendly temperaments. That pretty much reinforced my feelings about Dollar.
Have a wonderful summer!
