Yesterday I spent some time with Mt Weld Karingal she’s such an amazing mare I still cannot believe how far this beautiful mare has come, remembering she was a completely unhandled wild horse when I went and looked at her I thought ok I’ll go in with her any nasty and it’s a no but there was not a single nasty bone in her body I fell in love with her immediately you couldn’t get near her she was so fearful I knew I’d need help I’ve never owned a wild horse before I had no idea where to start but I wasn’t going to let this mare down she needed help understanding humans aren’t that bad I had no idea where to start but I knew someone who would the magnificent tiff from Equine services by horse dreams Tiff and Kev have been working with karingal non stop day in day out rain hail or shine every single day and it shows Kari now has a halter on she leads she can be caught in the big paddock and brought back into the stable at night, she eats out of the bucket while you hold it that’s a big one because she never used to eat till you where gone she’d just hide in the corner, yesterday I got pats for the first time to it was absolutely amazing, Kari gets lots of visitors who all absolutely adore her and she has her support group of other beautiful horses but I think her favourite is her little friend a cat called kitty who is never far from her side, Kari watches Tiff and Kev closely and if they walk by she flicks her forelock like oi you forgetting something where’s my favourite lollies 🥕 lol it’s amazing to see not only how far she’s come but to see how she’s learning to communicate the tail swish the forelock flick lol she’s a superb mare one who has engraved a spot in everyone’s heart 💜

How Absolutely Amazing is Tiff Paley @ Equine services by horse dreams a couple of snaps (video wouldn’t load) of Tiff walking Karingal on lead for the very first time, I’m so excited to see how far karingal has come I cried tears of joy watching the video, from the fear driven couldn’t even touch her wild mare she was to The still unsure of you scary humans but I’ll try to do what you’re asking mare she’s absolutely amazing such a super mare who has come a long way all thanks to Tiff and Kev.

Welcome to Mt Weld Karingal’s own page where you will be able to find and follow her journey from the wild nervous practically unhandled horse she arrived as,To a mare who understands us humans aren’t that bad with the help of Tiff @ Equine services by horse Dreams together we hope to build this stunning mare up to a confident well handled member of our family.

Mt Weld Karingal aka Kari is one of the very few original mares left rescued from Mt Weld station
Where they where sure to be destroyed due to the danger they imposed with a love for horses one man called Rob set out to save this beautiful herd who had such strong heritage links, before they were destroyed Rob managed to save a number of horses by trapping them unfortunately not all where trapped some illegal hunters unfortunately managed to shoot the rest of the herd. Those that where saved went on to become strong confident working horses and or broodmare‘s to preserve such a iconic breed.

Kari was one of those broodmare’s she was DNA tested and registered she’s a true heritage waler and now broodmare being a broodmare
This meant that she didn’t really require much handling essentially leaving her still pretty much wild she was trapped and trucked to York in 2007
Where she went on to have I believe two foals, in 2020 she was purchased and trucked again to a wonderful gentleman called Dave, Kari spent the next year with Dave and is possibly in foal to Dave’s stunning Waler stallion.

Fast forward to 2021 I had just sold my riding horse so definitely not looking for another horse just yet let alone a practically unhandled one when I came across Kari there was just something about her intrigued I went to view her only to find this whole time she lived just up the road from me, she was absolutely stunning jet black with two small white socks and a small white star with a spiritual feel about her it was at that moment that I knew I had to
Purchase her this wild yet so soft natured horse had already stole my heart. After a quick phone call to my wonderful non horsey husband and then Tiff I purchased Kari, the coming weeks Tiff and I spent coming and going from Dave’s getting Kari used of us before we decided to load her onto a double float something she’d never done before remembering she’d only ever been run onto a truck we where quiet amazed at how well she did it took awhile but we don’t want to stress her we want all things from here on out in her life to be a positive experience she did so amazingly well we are very proud of her, with Kari now loaded and in the safe hands of Tiff she began her journey to Equine services by horse dreams Kari arrived safely to her custom built stable thanks very much to Tiff’s partner Kev for building a safe secure space for Kari, Kari will spend the next few weeks with Tiff learning us humans aren’t that bad that we just want to love and care for her our aim is to have Kari halter and float trained we don’t want to ask to much of her but just enough that we can handle her safely with her trust and faith in us.

Kari is unlike any other horse I’ve ever meet she is incredibly intelligent her confirmation is spot on her temperament is so absolutely beautiful and soft she’s a kind soul regardless of being nervous of humans she has never once shown any aggression there is not a mean bone in her body, she has a strong spiritual feel about her, sometimes
She stares at the horizon almost as if she’s looking out for her herd waiting for them to return I wish We could bring them back for her but all We can do is hope she is in foal and she can keep her baby by her side forever.

Feel free to follow Karingals journey from wild to the loving hands of humans here where we will keep everyone updated on her progress 😊
Huge heartfelt Thankyou goes out to my husband
Chriss For allowing me to purchase Kari and begin this journey with her also same goes out to Dave for allowing me to purchase Kari and also Tiff and Kev for going absolutely above and beyond for Kari and myself We couldn’t do it without all your love and support Thankyou all so very much.
