PMU Foal Adoption Name "Ultimate Dream" - DREAM

Hello Equusite Friends,
We have just finished our 4th. day with Dream. I honestly don't think I could have found a better horse for a million dollars. I will just say that Dream already leads, comes when he is called, faces me and is sacked out to almost everything in the Tack Room. He played with his new Jolly Ball today and figured out he likes grain and carrots but he is not decided about Fig Newtons. He doesn't have any trouble with spray bottles and seems to enjoy cleaning his own stall ;)
We are still working on his feet. He did just fine when the Vet gave him his shot. Adopting Dream was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I will be writing articles about the training of Dream in hopes it will inspire many others this Summer when the new Foals are up for adoption.

He Has a Name
Name Announcement!

What's My Name? by Bob Pruitt

The little Colt is rarely involved with people, someone put a catch halter on with a short rope when he was smaller but now, a few months later, the halter is almost too small. He is from the "S" PMU Farm and the Farmers wife was considering keeping S-313 because there seems something special about the little horse. For a while he was on his way to Washington State and a adoption there but fate caused a delay. He was meant for us at Equusite/InfoHorse and we will see him here in California next month.

These Farmers that are in this PMU business are kind people and love the babies that are born to the Pregnant Mares. The Pregnant Mares are the producers of the hormone that makes a medicine to help women entering menopause. We all have Mothers and many women are helped by the medication produced. This is a business that is the livelihood of the Farmer and because of his co-operation many foals are saved but… foals that don't find a home will not live to adulthood. This is a hard fact that we would all like to change.

Many foals are born every year and S-313 (Our Foal) is one. His Father is a black and white paint stallion and Mom is a Percheron cross resulting in this case in a Buckskin Colt that looks like a big Quarter Horse. He will be herded onto a trailer in February and will arrive at his home near the middle of the month. As the owner of InfoHorse.com and Equusite.com, I will add that I am looking forward to meeting my new friend and horse partner and plan on spending time with him everyday. We are anxious to meet this young horse and will be using him in many features on the site that will educate us all about training a young horse and more importantly inspiring others to consider adopting the horses from the PMU Farms . In this cause we are exclusively working with
PMU FANI (Foal Adoption Network Inc.). We are sure there are many good people involved in this cause but our resources are limited and find the FANI people very good to work through and we are grateful for their good work and help with our Foal..

We thank everyone that submitted a name for us to consider, all of them are good names and we will email everyone that participated a 5$ Gift Certificate from our friends at
Twinkle Equine Glitter soon.

We have chosen the name: "Equusite's Ultimate Dream"
and will call him "Dream".

Martha Moraad from North Carolina submitted
Ultimate Dream--Because it is the "Ultimate Dream" for these foals to be rescued.
