Ares de Epona

Mountain Dream Condessa x General


Ares is a wonderful little guy - I told Julia she didn't have to buy him! <grin>  But she insists I honor that in utero contract, dangit.  Here are some pictures Julia took when she came to visit him both on his birth day and at 6 days old.  This little guy has SO much sense and is so smart!  My beloved pure Spanish dressage mare,  Condessa, and the gorgeous, acclaimed by Juan Llamas and national judges stallion, the General, made a wonderful combination.  Ares has wonderful conformation, a lovely hip, nice big movement, beautiful front end, beautiful back end and perfectly straight legs.  He's got a great personality and is quite the clown, I've been teaching him tricks, too <grin>.  His favorite is to take the Jolly Ball (purple, of course) when asked, and fling it at his mother.    He is incredibly easy to train and just loves attention - a real pocket pony sort of guy.

I'm glad to have him leave us to go with Julia and Christopher Webb, our friends.  They are excited about their first PRE Andalusian and we are excited to be able to give them such a very special boy, of such high quality and personality.  The best part for me is having him go to such wonderful people who are only a few hours away, and still get to watch him grow up!

Pictures of "Hay Face Boy" and playing with his toys soon.
