Found!
Finally - after a year and a half of browsing literally 1000’s of online ads, miles and miles of driving and burning money on fuel - we found a horse for Hannah yesterday!!!!!!!!!
Her name is Echoes (short for Echoes of Jet). She’s a 10 yr old AQHA (registered Easy Jet bloodlines) mare. And only 36 miles away in Wichita Falls. We tried her out on Sunday (even Hannah rode her). Bringing her home on Wednesday.
Her background - At 4 yrs old she was rescued from a neglectful owner and placed with Whispering Hope Farm as a lesson horse. Whispering Hope is a riding program for children with severe mental and physical disabilities. Which means she had to have a “bombproof” nature to be trusted for the kids to ride.
From there she went to the people who have her now. They bought her for their 7 yr old daughter to show in Western Pleasure, Showmanship, and Reining. She’s absolutely gorgeous! Most importantly - Hannah LOVED her.
kind of an odd coincidence - her color and markings are identical to my very first horse.
She just couldn’t be any more perfect.
Here’s a pic -
I’m so excited (and relieved).
