Steina Lauscher
Icelandic mare
palomino
13hh
13 years old

Brood mare
When we first got Steina (August 98), she was a very shy timid horse that ran away as soon as she saw someone entering the fence of her pasture. She was extremely head shy. She never kicked (thank God) and once caught acted very mannerly, but she didn't trust us enough for some activities. Now close to being a year later, Steina trusts her main care-givers (there's about 4 or 5 of us). Well now it's going to sound like I'm describing a different horse, because I guess I am. Now instead of running away at the sight of people, she comes as quick as she can. She picks up her feet as soon as you bend down. We had the saddle on her a couple of times, and she took it better than some horses I know that have a great deal of trainning. She was bred with a Icelandic red bay, which means that the foal could turn out to be any colour. Personally I'm hoping for a pinto because I think they are so cute.
