Yes, she is, actually she is ...Hi Caren, thank you! Yes, she is, actually she is a smokey grulla (she has both the creme gene and the dun gene, she once had a daughter that is a cremello/perlino). Her mother was also a smokey grulla, and her sire is a dun, so Lark maybe is double dun, all her offspring were duns except the perlino. I haven't tested her yet. She's a really neat horse, very quiet usually, and I can go on long rides in the mountains with her. She loves trail too, you know, in the arena, going over bridges, through tires, over poles, and so on. I'm so glad the snow is back, it has been horrible rain for so long.austriancurlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03015633298952678666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717706221912581837.post-55570695541597553912013-01-16T14:49:58.631-05:002013-01-16T14:49:58.631-05:00Wow looks like snow over there (here too!). Yes I ...Wow looks like snow over there (here too!). Yes I can understand the school horse attitude. Scarlett, Peter's mare, is a bit that way as well. Lark has a gorgeous color! Is she grulla?

I'm hoping to do ground work with Lark again, and get her back into training so that she's happier and has fun too. :)austriancurlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03015633298952678666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717706221912581837.post-82382781259493198032013-01-16T11:28:16.984-05:002013-01-16T11:28:16.984-05:00I like your comment about your beautiful mare lear...I like your comment about your beautiful mare learning bad habits from your students; it reminds me how we are always teaching our horses good and bad habits with every thing we do. I have the same problem with my Haflinger. He has so many beginner riders on him that when I ride him he starts out being totally unresponsive.Susan Lejonhudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033533393041104852noreply@blogger.com
