Horse's Name, Color, Breed and Age
She fit her name: Sheeze-A-Breeze. She was a chestnut, overo, Paint. She passed away at age 27. She had been in failing health and we knew we would have to have her put down before winter came, but she died peacefully one night in her stall just before Thanksgiving.
How Long Did Your Own Your Horse, Where Was It From?
We owned her for 16 years. We purchased her from a horse dealer, who had brought her here to CT from Ohio.
We kept her at a stable for a year, then my husband built a barn for her here. We boarded a few horses to so she would have friends.
She was mainly trail ridden here and shown by my daughter in 4-H shows.
