4 weeks ago, on 2/25/08, we brought Brownie home. She had been advertised for a while on Craigslist by a woman who lives in Mossy Head. The ad was for a pregnany pony and had a photo of Brownie being held by her daughter, Kristen. I watched the ad for several weeks until I seen one that said in so many words, "Please come and get this pony!" My heart cried out for this cute little pony and for some reason I answered the call. I wasn't looking for another horse, I am completely satisfied with Prissy and all the work that came along with her. Cheryl and I picked her up that Monday in February. When we loaded her up we took her right to the vet for an exam and blood tests. The vet gave her a once over, drew blood for her coggins test and we brought her home. She couldn't tell how far long the pregnancy was and didn't palpate her to try. Honestly, Cheryl and I had our doubts she was pregnant. She just didn't look it. When we got home and let her out of the trailer she proved herself to be an old pro at moving around. Once let out in the pasture she walked around a bit and went to grazing without a whinny, neigh or gallop. I liked this pony! She is a real prize. These photos were taken the day after she was brought home.
