I thought I'd wait a while before updating a little on my new partner and first Frieisan. She is great and a pistol. Character galore and SUPER people friendly. She is learning at a nice pace and groundwork is going well. I noticed she's got a bit of dry skin, and my trainer suggested head and shoulders shampoo...any one wish to chime in on that? Also she's been rubbing the hell out of her tail and I will get some MTG tomorrow, and get started on that. She has always been by herself prior to me purchasing her, and has never been in a herd ...her only interaction was with humans, which is why she's so people friendly, I suppose. But it took her about 2 weeks and she is fully integrated into the herd and made friends with all 6 horses. She looks funny amongst the others, because she is black and stocky amongst 2 Paints and 3 Saddlebreds, and 1 QH mix...she sticks out, that's for sure. She is very docile, and easy going and gets frustrated if she makes a mistake...too funny ! We are bonding nicely, and every day is a new adventure with her. She is not under saddle yet, but we have to work on groundwork first..as you all know :) I am looking for any and all advice you can hand out concerning taking her to her Keuring for Studbook next year. She will be 4 in April, and that gives us plenty of time preparing for it, but I have no idea what to expect and where to start...so any advice is greatly appreciated. I will update again soon, and in the meantime, if you'd like to check her out, she even has her own Facebook web page:

Thanks in advance for all your advice :)
