I’ve been playing phone tag with our trainer, but I caught her for a few minutes this morning and she gave me a quick update on Nadia.  Their farm in Stanwood has been buried in 3 feet of snow (and still snowing today! thank goodness we just have rain here now) and their arena frozen but she has been on her once and just walked her around.  Nadia is very nervous and skittish, reminding her a lot of Amber (another Arab mare we had that Andrea trained for us).  However, despite her nervousness she is very sweet and Andrea also got the sense that she is broke to ride and has had some training in the past.  I’ll keep working on getting some pictures of her!  It’s hard when she is an hour away from Monroe, but its worth it for us because our trainer, Andrea Lucianna of Half-Trak Farm, does such a fabulous job with every horse she has trained for us (13 horses so far!).
