Foaled
4-10-87. Waro Van De Haflingerhoeve X Wencke Van
Langelo.
Karo
is our Dutch Imported mare. She is a beginner's dream.
In our family she outranks them all when it comes
to dependability on the trail; her rider reads books
while on the trail and often will ride facing the
rider behind so they can talk. She is the one we
pull out as the “company” horse to be ridden by guests
no matter what their riding experience may or may
not be. She has been assisting with therapy for an
autistic child and has proven what can be accomplished
when there is a bond between horse and child.
As
a producing mare, we think she can’t be beat. I recently
met one of her granddaughters in Illinois and she
is the exact replica of Karo; including the disposition.
Karo has given us three very correct fillies, all
with her exceptional disposition.
Karo
was on our family’s 2004 summer adventure in Wyoming,
carrying her rider safely over one hundred miles
of grueling trail. They were the only Haflinger team
to complete the 2 ˝ mile mad dash for Butch Cassidy
and the Sundance Kid’s Hole In The Wall.
