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
