PRECISION MADE
(UVM Prelude X Willy Remember Me)
1992 brown mare, 14.0

Maddy is a most exquisite creature. She looks like something Walt Disney would have created- too beautiful to even be real. Of course, it doesn't hurt that she has extremely good-looking parents! Because she matured a bit small for my 5' 10" frame, in November 2003 Maddy found a new home with Janice Annee in Canton GA, who was looking for a small, quiet horse to ride with her daughter Stephanie. Maddy was just the ticket!

Fast forward almost 7 years. The Annees were retiring and wanted to travel so they were looking for a new home for Maddy. Every one of our horses sells with a right of first refusal. It has not always been honored over the years, but thankfully in Maddy's case it was. I did not want Maddy, at her age, to go into an uncertain future, so we purchased her back. Now I have another little bit of her grand-dam Reminiscing, my first Morgan, here with me.

Here's Maddy with her family, December 2004. The Salukis are (L-R) Uri, Liza, and Tareef, being held by Stephanie; Darkfire, an Arabian gelding, is behind Maddy; Jan is in between the two horses. Jill, a chow/mix and Batal, another Saluki, are being held by Carl. What a great picture- I have always wanted to do something like this with my entire herd, but I think it might be a bit too ambitious of a project!


June 13, 2010- Maddy is home again! It was 94 degrees outside today so more pictures will have to wait for cooler weather, but I wanted to get a few updated pictures for this web page. Working with her to get these shots, I was again astonished at her intelligence. She seems to understand everything I say as she moves around me (just as I taught her years ago), free lungeing. She has immediately slipped back into the old daily routine here-  as if she had never left.


June 13, 2010-  Maddy's head is probably her best attribute. It is pretty and dishy, her eyes are huge and liquid- her whole expression is just unmistakably MORGAN. She looks so much like her dam Mimi.
