Frederick, Robin,
These are a couple pictures from the horse show we took Prince Koda to
on 4/19. This was a hunter show held by a local riding club. This
was his first show under saddle. In fact, his rider is a young
gal named Abigail Wiley who is training him for Virginia. Virginia is
in Wilmington, NC 350 miles away and couldn't take Koda with her for
the time being. Abigail has been riding him 3 times a week for only a
month now. Prior to this the last time Koda was under saddle was Sept
07. So he is a great student and looks and moves beautifully. He knows
it too. He took 2 blue ribbons this day in his division. Only
groundwork. Virginia doesn't want to jump him. Dressage is the goal.
He will be going to some dressage shows later this summer.
Thanks,
Mark

My trainer (Tom) used Koda Tuesday for a lesson with a gentleman
(Joe) at our barn who is going to start
Halter class with his Percheron/Friesian Cross and Koda was awesome.
He is so well behaved and he has
gotten to the point where he knows what you want before you ask. My
trainer trotted him then had him whoa and went to stand in front of
him to stand him up and by the time Tom was about to ask Koda to get
in place he had already done it! He was very patient and eager to
please Joe. It was wonderful to watch!!
Take care,
Virginia and Koda

Fredericka and Robin,
Hello and hope you are all well. I just wanted to send you a quick
note to tell you about Koda. He is doing very well. We have been
riding him for several months now and he catches on so quick. I can
tell that he is so eager to please. Two weekends ago we took him to a
show and I rode him in the warm-up ring with some
other horses and he did soooo well!! I was very proud of him. He
turned many heads and I passed around your website info to many
people. They are impressed with how well behaved he is and they are
very interested in his breed. All that I can tell them is that I am
one very happy and proud mom. Koda had truly been a gift to me. He has
such a gentle spirit and I find that he is a big comfort when I need a
lift in my spirits. He seems to know when I need his love. I am so
thankful that I stumbled across your website more than 2 years ago
because he has been a wonderful blessing. I could not be happier.
Iattached a few photos of he and I for your enjoyment. Thank you for
breeding and raising such a wonderful horse!!
Love,
Virginia and Koda
