Cricket was purchased from the dealer by Calgal98. She got her thru a tough pregnancy and delivery. They were able to save Cricket but she delivered a full term angel filly.
She is approx 25 yrs old, an old ranch horse that was probably used on cows and everything else. She really knows her stuff. Is tough as nails and will probably out live me ;D. We got her from Calgal for my 8 yr old daughter, Rhemi. Cricket is crabby and as Rhemi has become a better rider in this short time, she is putting Rhemi through the challenges that kids horses do to teach them excellent riding skills.

Our trip home with Cricket should have taken 2.5 hours, but our truck broke down, then our friends car broke down trying to haul us back to Fresno, 3rd try was a charm. Here was our 2nd break down. This is my daughter and Cricket in a field next to the highway.
At home taken last month:
Rhemi now loping:
and of course 2 of our dogs. Steele the Giant Schnauzer and Krissy the Shepard/Chow X. Lillie the Chi is safely in the house sleeping.

I just love happy endings.
