Hey.. I want to tell you about Jordache, She is a 24 years young full
Polish Arabian. Jordache has been riding the trails here in Lake
Havasu’s Donkey Acres for over 18 years. I am 60 years old and just
started riding 4 years ago. I ride alone, a lot, just Jordache and I, out
enjoying all the beauty Mother Nature has to share. I started riding
Jordache nearly 4 years ago. Jordache’s owner is my cousin Katherine
Covert. Kathy has learned over the last 2 years, that Jordache and I
have bonded closer then she or I would of ever expected. Kathy has given
me full reins on Jordache. I spend nearly every morning up caring for
and grooming Jordache. Jordache can be a hand full at times. When
Jordache wants to turn and go home while we’re riding, I have to turn
her, stop her and then turn her back. We so enjoy our one on one time
together out in the mountains, washes and desert. Jordache and I have
experienced the unexpected while riding, like snakes, coyotes, and off
road vehicles. Jordache never spooks. I share with her, my time and
secrets, and love to sing to her, “You are my Sunshine” and “Don’t fence
me in”. The family says Jordache is a good horse, because they have
heard me sing...lol Jordache used to compete in many rodeos, she has
several ribbons for Barrel Races. She has retired from the rodeos and I
just bought her a very nice light weight English saddle so her and I can
enjoy our senior years in comfort. Thanks for letting me share my story
about my best friend Jordache. - Sara G.
