KATIE

[toeps]

Katie is a GREAT lil horse. She came in with Popeye. She has been used for eveything from 4h to gaming & trail riding. I recognize this mare from some game shows, nice calm mare took good care of the kids that rode her. She does everything when you ask & wants to do more. She is as sweet as she can be.. I didn't find out how old she is, so I'll have to call FLO...but I would guess maybe early teens. If I needed another lesson horse I would take her home...She was just wonderful.

That has to be about one of the saddest things I've yet read. From shows and children, to the FEEDLOT?

I hope the good background info and her experience with children gets her off that lot fast! She sounds like a doll!

Why does it seem like there are so many Arabs in feedlots?

As I wrote on the other thread, I just don't get it. I really don't. How she ended up in a slaughter lot is not even close to being understood. Look at the trust in those eyes and in that body posture.

I do have to say, I am going to agree with Apache that this feedlot owner has a good eye for reliable horses and he's willing to give them a chance.

That is about one of the sweetest Arabs I have seen. I wonder how she ended up with a FLO.
