Lioness Dahlia is a wonderful foundation mare for us! We are so very very fortunate to have had the opportunity to welcome this mare into our lives, our herd and our hearts. She is a rare prize in her size and demeanor and we realize the great value of this prize for our farm.
She has given us three beautiful foals, all three of great size and with her sparkling personality.
Most visitors to the farm think she is a stallion because of her amazing build and stature. Even though she is so large she is very animated and is unusually agile and flexible.
This is a mare that anyone can ride. She loves children and loves to please. She is ever so careful around tiny feet and has also always nurtured her foals in the same fashion. She was trained English but can be ridden bareback. She has been used for lessons and she is steady and loving and just a very kind mare all around. (Pictured above riding three kids bareback!)
We have enjoyed sharing our lives with Lioness Dahlia and will always cherish this gentle giant in our hearts and in our fields...she is a blessing and a such a treasure!
