We were new to miniatures and even newer to showing, when we went to visit Sherri and Ed Alliman at Alliman Joy Farm. Mom and I were flabbergasted -to say the least- at Sherri’s beautiful horses. I think we wanted to take them all home that day!
Sherri answered all our questions and became one of the best friends we have today. She even convinced us to start showing. And that is where I first met the “horse that hates horse shows”
I was instantly attracted to Princess. She was the most beautiful pinto I had ever seen. But it was her personality that everyone loved. You could almost put words to her expressions. She would pout when ignored and sigh when bored. But watch her go into the show ring, and you wouldn’t know it was the same horse! Tail up, eyes bright, nostrils flared and a trot that said “look at me”. And look they did, I lost count of all the Grands and Reserves she was winning! And to watch her drive was a dream.
