Some people are lukewarm about life. They amble mildly along with few dreams, aspiring to little, achieving little, never really experiencing living to the fullest, and never particularly effecting or changing anything. People like that don't leave much of a legacy.

Hi All, almost 10 years ago, I opened my barn to a rescued Arab who came from a farm dispersal in Michigan. I was always an Arab fan but always felt they were a bit small for me, but I fell in love with this guy. He came in a mess, full of fungus, completely and dreadfully underweight, but within a years time , he was healthy and we were schooling some low level dressage. I went on to work with him for several years and he ended up beauifully schooling 2nd level, we never went further due to me being diagnosed with a chronic auto-immune disease. That illness is now forcing us to close up shop here in NY and move to a warmer climate. I can only take one horse with me, so I am looking to rehome this wonderful guy. Here are his "stats"

name: Shahphir
Sire: Dal Noir
15.3h, very red sorrell, beautiful coloring

Schooled to 2nd level, but has been out of work for 2+ yrs now due to my illness. He is not for a beginner rider, he does need frequent "boundaries" due to a strong personality, not mean, actually hes quite amusing and fun. I will dig out his registration papers from the attic for more background on his breeding. As much as I love the Arabs, I do not know a whole lot about them in terms of breeding, etc...This is not a desperate situation, just would love to see him with someone that can appreciate him instead of him hanging around being a "pasture ornament" !! I would also need to know that if his new owner, at any point in time could not care for him, that he would come back to me. Ideally, I would love the opportunity to visit him now and again and absolutely keep in touch with his new home. I love him dearly and this is heartbreaking, but I have to put my feelings aside and do whats best for him.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to utilizing this board in the future.
