[haflingerfriends] Marilyn & Dawn - thanks for both articles/posts!!

Thanks so much for posting that link, Marilyn!!
_www.haflingewww.haflingewww.haflinwww.haflinwww.ha_
(http://www.haflinger.it/cavallo_haflinger/haflinger_e.html) Aside from it having a famous picture that (to me) says so
much about the breed, this has to be one of my all time favorite pics of a
Haffie!! :-) (referring to the colored pic -- a ? farmer, his wife &
dog, climbing a steep Austrian mountainside, she gettin some "help",
holding onto the gelding's tail! :-)
.
I've been looking for that pic - no kidding, want to frame it for my home.
Thanks again for posting that link!
.
On another note - I also re-read that article on the history of the Haffie
in Austria. This time, I started thinking..... I would love to save this
article and Dawn's summary of the Haffie'
.
This Austrian & U.S. history is something I would like to share with
non-Haffie owning riding friends.
.
Often I'm asked about Ellie's breed, and I can only repeat a few bits.
Sometimes those friends are really interested in much more detail than I have
memorized. :-)
.
I enjoy learning the Haffie's history - not just in the U.S. but back to
the "deep roots", too :-)
