Orange County, CA: 22 y/o Dutch Warmblood mare needs home

By

"Jumara" is a very well bred 22-year-old imported Dutch Warmblood, used as a broodmare and dressage horse.  She is sound, barefoot, and a relatively easy keeper as long as she's not in a pasture environment.  (She is the lowest in the pecking order and loses weight from not standing up for herself.)  She is a sweet girl, and very sensitive, so will need a kind rider.  She is currently being ridden in dressage at the OC Fairgrounds.
