Aleesha and Charms Story written by Aleesha of White Rock B.C. age 17
The time had finally come! My Dad and I were on our way to Edmonton, Alberta to go horse hunting. It had taken ALOT of convincing on my part that it was necessary to fly all the way out there, and that I certainly needed another horse. (My other horse is a 27 year old Egyptian Arabian gelding , Baba) For months I had scoured the internet looking for prospects that interested me, and setting appointments to see these prospects within a three day trip. My most promising inquiry was at a ranch in Pine Lake, where there was a little black 2 year old filly by the name of Robins Full Of Charm. During the days leading up to my trip, I obsessively looked at all of my prospects on the internet, but for some reason, I kept going back to the picture of Charm. When we finally reached the Robinson's Ranch, I was so excited I could barely sit still. With the help of Shawna, we viewed all of their gorgeous horses, and once I chose Charm, we went and seen her dam and sire in the field. It was an experience I will never forget. When I got her off the trailer at my barn in Langley, BC a few months later, nobody except me seen the greatness that she had in store. I sent her to a local trainer who I was told was "really very good" and 4 months later, got a very sour, very green broke horse. So, I put my 6 years experience to work and undid the "training" that was done. Now , Charm is a 15.2 hand beauty, shiny, healthy, happy, and increadably well mannered! She has competed in English events, gone on trail rides, has chased cattle, been roped off of, trailers like a dream, clips, ties, bathes. EVERYTHING!! Rick and Shawna Robinson gave me my dream horse, she is everything I ever hoped for! They breed amazing animals that are capable of any job or competion and do it with beauty, style , and personality! This year Charm and I are enrolled in High School Rodeo, and after that I want to do reining, and working cow horse, because that is the greatest thing about Robins Full Of Charm , she loves to work, and she tries her heart out at everything you ask her to do!!
