Hello Everyone!

As you'll be aware the committee for the AGHS has recently changed. While the Gypsy community is a small one there's still a good chance not everyone will know the people on the committee individually. As such we have a 'Meet and Greet' and catchup session planned for after our next meeting on the 29th of October 2011. The meeting will be held at my place, Terror's Creek Drum and Gypsy Horse Stud, at Mt Pleasant - just outside Dayboro, about an hour from Brisbane. 

We'd like to use this opportunity to catch everyone up on our plans for the society and what new changes you can look out for, but also as a chance for you to share your thoughts with us on what you would like to see happen in the future of the AGHS. Of course you're more than welcome just to come and network with other breeders and meet the Gypsy's and Drums, I'm sure they'll be more than grateful for the attention! 

Of course with the long distances involved not everyone will be able to attend but anyone who would like to is more than welcome. So I have an idea of numbers if you could just let either myself or another committee member know if you're attending it would be greatly appreciated. A 'conference call' service will also be available for anyone who would like to phone in, please contact myself, Jane or Kelly for details. Or if there's an issue you'd particularly liked raised and you are unavailable on the day please email me and I will have it brought to the committee's attention.

If you know of anyone interested in possibly joining the society who would like to know more about our aims and objectives please pass this along or bring them with you.

Please find the necessary details below and look forward to hopefully meeting some of you next weekend!

WANTED  23/10/11

Hubby and I are looking to give a wonderful forever home to a large feather footed friend. We have 11 acres in south east qld and we have 3 other horses ( quarter horses) all geldings. We are finding it hard to get any sort of reply or acknowledgement of emails form studs and thought this may be a place to start. We don't need a show horse and would prefer a gelding, young or older. We are willing to geld a colt if needed.

We both appreciate your help.

cheers

WANTED  - CAN YOU HELP? 4/8/11

Hi Janine

Thank you very much for speaking with me today.

One of my bushfire clients, Mike, a retired mounted policeman, had Paddy, a retired police horse, who in another life was known as Gendarme Viii the police rum horse. Since retirement, Paddy and Mike would attend various ceremonies around Victoria and interstate doing parades with pipe bands bands, Tattoos and ANZAC parades, etc.

Paddy made headlines during the Black Saturday bushfires up here in Myrtleford when he protected his little herd of sheep and goats by keeping them together behind him when the fires went through the property. Six months later, Paddy and Mike were out on a ride together when Paddy had a massive heart-attack and died on the spot.

Mike isn’t in a position to buy another trained horse and still misses Paddy terribly. Is there anyone out there who isn’t using a big, completely unflappable gelding that Mike could use as a drum horse? He would go to the best of homes and would be treated as a  family member. Mike is an expert police horse trainer and would teach the horse to carry the kettle-drums, how to go up and down the Australian War Memorial steps, and walk behind pipe bands. The horse MUST be bombproof because of people crowding around wanting to pat him after parades.

If anyone can help please call Pat on 03 57273558 AH.

Thank you again Janine, I’ve attached photos separately of Mike and Paddy working. You could also give my home email address if you wish, rosewood12@bigpond.com

Kind regards

Pat

Will pay top dollar for the right horse!

Big strong smooth gaited horse to buy for mounted archery practice. 

The horse needs to be:

- Quiet to handle and ride
- ideally over 16hh and of thick sturdy build
- able to be ridden by novice riders
- Have a smooth gait especially at the trot and canter
- able to trot and canter on a loose rein without speeding up or taking off!
