Congratulations
to Jessie Herdes and her family, of Ontario, Canada! Oebele just
arrived at their farm and this is what Jessie had to say after spending
the day with him!
Hi
Sue, Thank
YOU so much! Oebele
is so Gorgeous, Gentle and Affectionate and a Real Gentleman!! I
can't believe how very well mannered he is! Your
business partners are amazing trainers. He is the perfect size too. WOW. We
spent the whole day with him, he was very curious and so huggable. He
took a little time "checking" out our farm. We showed him around and he
seemed cautious but was calm. Everything must be so different for him. We
turned him out in the field and he just cut loose! Wow he is beautiful
to watch. I think he had been cooped up long enough on his long journey
to get here and he was so happy to be free. Thank
You again. I
will send pictures very soon. Bye
for now Jessie

Hi
Sue,
Thank
you for looking into Oebele's papers. I knew they would come eventually
and to be honest I forgot all about them. I (we) have been having such
a great time with Oebele, he is so loved! I
(we) just Love Oebele , he is so well mannered and so gentle. I have never
known a horse to be so curious, affectionate and intelligent. He is so
interested in everything we do. While the other horses graze Oebele follows
us around inspecting everything. He is even gentle with our dog and seems
to want to play with him. Oebele is so beautiful with the kindest face
and eyes. He doesn't mind at all if we sit with him while he is lying down,
he seems to enjoy the company. He is so good. He
likes to play with his huge equi-spirit ball. We roll it back and forth
& then he chases it around & kicks it with his front legs or pushes
it with his head. Everyday
I look forward to spending lots of time with Oebele and this week we will
be out on the trails together . Thank
you Sue for helping to bring this wonderful horse into our lives. We
will keep you up dated. Bye
for now Jessie

Hi
Sue, [Your dog] Liam & Guinness (our golden) look so much alike! Oebele
& Guinness are great together. Oebele likes to sneak up & sniff
him and then give him a gentle head butt. Guinness responds by licking
Oebele's face (& he lets him!)! Oebele has personality plus, he is
such a character and a very gentle soul! He loves the trails and exploring
new areas. I feel very fortunate to have such a horse! Bye
for now Jessie
