CHEROKEE:  1st top (left) & 2nd (right) pictures bottom picture (left) — April 2024 we said good-bye to a once in a lifetime horse at only 15 years old as he developed high ringbone (arthritis) in is front foot just above the hoof in the fall and continued to get more lame this spring.  He was bought in the fall of 2016 as a project but quickly turned into Dave’s #1 horse for trails, mountains, obstacles, cattle penning and also was part leased out to students for jumping.  Not sure why some of the best horses are with us such a short time.  Maybe because they need these horses in heaven?  Run free Cherokee!  RIP Video
