She was born June 6, 2011. Merry's sire is a registered, palomino sabino Welsh stallion. Her dam, Cindy, is a grade, dun, tobiano, sabino, American Paint Pony. Merry is......chestnut. Can you believe it? There are five color genes she could have inherited from her mom and/ or dad: dun, tobiano, cream, sabino, black. She got none of them. But though she is plain in color, she is as pretty as a picture, possesing excellent conformation and an adorable dish-faced head. I do believe she did inherit the sooty gene from her sire as evidenced by her very dark liver chestnut color once she shed her foal coat.
Merry has a wonderful, calm, layed back personality that will help to make her a perfect cart pony. At five months, she went to live with her new owner, our vet, Dr. Jeanne Strackbein, in Clarksville, AR. Dr. Jeanne plans to train her to drive and ride when she is matured a little bit and we are so glad she is living close and we'll get to see her every once in a while.
