Saying goodbye to a horse you have raised and trained since a 7 month old filly is very hard, but it makes it easier when she was able to pick her new family. After many meet and greets she was wanted by several people, but Rooster made her own pick and she was immediately Deep in love and made it very clear these were her girls now and she wasn’t gonna settle for anyone else. You could see it in her eyes and how extremely eager she was to please them and that this was her choice of people.
Rooster Whiskey Barrel Rose has found her new forever family. She couldn’t be more in love with her new family, she has two little girls to love her and treat her like a unicorn.
We couldn’t be more happy for Rooster and the her new family. This makes me so happy and I’m so grateful to be able to be there in this part of her life. Rooster will forever be in my heart.

Our beautiful monster baby Rooster!!
She is a 3 1/2yr old Friesian cross and already standing at 16 hands!! She is going to be a big beauty predicted to top out at 16.3-17 hands. She is absolutely stunning with super thick mane and tail. We have had her since she was 7 months old. It has been amazing watching her grow. She is very super sweet and loves to get cuddles and brushed.
She will be green broke and up for consideration this summer.
