Registered Name: My Celtic Dream
Barn Name: Dublin
Age: 6
Sex: Mare
Breed: Quarter Pony X Welsh
Color: Chesnut
Height: 14.2
Discipline: English, mainly Equitation and Medals, but also a pony jumper
Personality: 100 WORDS Dublin in one of the sweetest mares you will ever have the chance to meet. She likes everyone, with the exception of a few people. Dublin is very protective of Katie though. This pony is not afraid to show when she doesn't like something, and she always makes sure that you remember that. Dublin can be kind of mouthy and bites, but mostly only when you are doing the girth. Dublin is the sort of pony that does not think she is a pony. She has the stride of a 16.2 hh horse, and that is no joke. But, this is just one of the things that Katie loves about this pony. Dublin is also a horse that loves to give and recieve attention. She will always make you feel very very special.
History: 150 WORDS Dublin is a little bit of a been there and done that sort of pony. Before Katie got her, Dublin had been a trail horse, a barrel racer, a show pony, and soooo many other things. When Dublin first arrived for Katie, she was crazy and Katie's parents were afraid to let Katie ride her. But with a lot of training and patience and love, Dublin has become a star pony. But, when she came to OBF, she was a terror to see. She galloped around the ring and barreled herself at and over what jump was put in front of her. But now, Dublin will easily glide over every obstacle put in front of her and she will always look good doing it. A year before arriving at Canterbury, Dublin and Katie made it to the USEF Pony Finals 2007 where Dublin and Katie came in 31st out of 60 some ponies in the Large Green Pony division and were in 2nd place in the Pony Jumpers.
