Mango Minster 2012 Best In Show 2nd Runner Up!!

Chrome is napping after spending so much energy on Mango Minster the last few days so I'll do his monthly progress report tomorrow. I just dropped in to let you all know he was the second runner up!! Here is the post http://mangominster.blogspot.com/2012/02/best-in-show-winners.html. Thank you all for hanging in there and voting for Chrome. You all are the best!

I'm so excited. I had a lot of fun with this show. Mango Minster is the best show ever. Anyway I'm going to hit the hay (pun intended lol) because I just got back from a friends house after riding horses for hours and I'm exhausted (not to mention sore since I haven't been on a horse in months). :D

Congratulations Chrome! Not only did you place at Best in Show, but you totally broke the dog / cat barrier of contestants. Good job!

Slobbers,

hey, you have a donkey. one donkey?

with horses?

i'm asking cuz i'm trying to get a donkey as a companion for baasha, and so far every single source says "you cannot put a donkey with a horse, they are different species and need their own! if you see them happy together it is only because they are tolerating the suffering."

ok then.

seriously though, a donkey seems to me to be a good companion for a horse.

Dam: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Breed: Standard Donkey
DOB: 2007
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
Color: Gray (what do you call the donkey color??)

Date Aquired: My dad rescued/bought him shortly before I brought Chrome home, but he gave him to us on 1-18-10.

Likes: Treats, forehead scratches, his buddies and braying early in the morning.
Dislikes: Being handled at all (his first three years were spent in someone's backyard never being touched), sudden movements and sometimes his bratty pasture mate Chrome. :D

I'm in my thirties, live in the USA and I love horses (obviously). I've been obsessed with Friesians (that's Chrome's purebred Friesian sire in the above picture) for over ten years. I started riding horses when I was five and always had horses from then until 2007 when I found myself without one. I wanted a Friesian, but the budget wouldn't allow for it so I started looking at crosses. I found Chrome (Friesian/Arabian) and I haven't regretted it for a second. I bought him as a five month old weanling in 2009 and I've done all of his training myself. The blog is about our continued journey together as I attempt to make him my dream all around horse who can do anything from dressage, competitive trail riding, driving, mounted archery, working equitation and anything else we want to try. He's still very green and we obviously have a long way to go, but you're welcome to follow along on our journey. I also love dogs, art, photography, writing, reading, fishing, biking, camping, archery and many other things. You can learn more about me on my About Me page, my Equestrian Bucket List page and my FAQ page.
