Yes I did get Grabbson. He is having a blast here.or I hope so anyway. He is
babysitting our youngsters and out in the pasture with the geldings. I
didn't breed him when I got him. I just wanted to get to know him. He

Actually, Grabbson was trained to drive by someone Tim Hamlett hired. I
don't think he was driven extensively, but he did show at Blue Earth at
least one year. He looked pretty nice though the driver/trainer left a lot
to be desired

Wouldn't Grabbson find a home faster if he was a gelding? He is still young

Jean,
Unfortunately the stallion was not trained for anything but breeding. :-(.
This is why he has not sold as of yet. He is related to our mares, so we
have not been interested in him... or we would have worked a deal with Les

Hi List !
After reading some of the comments about Grabbson going to auction I called
my old friend from CA. Les Hoagland and asked him to write something to the
list which we had already talked about.
This is NOT a rescue Fjord. Far from
, but, I sure hope someone in the fjord world will provide Grabbson
with a place to live out his years.
I have given several older horses (mares) retirement homes in the past years.
The rewards are priceless.
Last week I found my 25 year old QH mare dead in the pasture. She simply
died

I know Grabbson. I met him years ago when his first owner, Bill Stephenson,
in Nebraska owned him and he is Tank's father. I saw him go to Tim and then
to Les. I know all these people and they have loved this horse. Les has
written me about
, needing a new
home. If I recall, he is quite old?
I have no money to purchase him, nor do I have the experience to handle a
stallion, but, I sure hope someone in the fjord world will provide Grabbson
with a place to live out his years.
Thanks Linda. Grabbson is 23 years young

Many breeds deposit semen samples in a gene bank from their foundation
