Natural Gait Paso Fino

Posted by the owner of the horse: I bought this horse from a man who buys horses at auctions and resells most of them to slaughter houses. He told me he bought him at an auction in Oregon in November, he is now happily living with me in Washington. He is a very well trained gaited gelding who was obviously loved at one point in his life. I would love to learn more about him. I named him Little Guy, he is a sweetheart. If this horse looks familiar and you think you may know him, please contact me.

Student Wins Public Speaking Contest with Speech About Soring

Emily Woolley is a Mount Si High School (Snoqualmie, WA) graduating senior, who joined 4H eight years ago with her horse named Red. In 2006, she won the Washington state 4H Equine Public Speaking Contest with a speech about soring.

"It’s prevalent in the gaited horse industry when people use chemical means, so they have a more flashy gait," Woolley said. "They put chemicals on their horse’s legs and on the bottom of the feet and add pads to the feet, so when the horses hoof hits the ground, it hurts and they lift their leg higher."

Congratulations to Emily, who is also class valedictorian!
