Fell Pony Mare for Sale in Snohomish, WA
Chanthal is 10 years old with the matching mature attitude. She was
given 90 days training in Holland as a 3-4 year old, then imported to
the States. She has been predominately a broodmare since then. As an
8 year old, riding was introduced again. She was saddled up western
and trail ridden with no other refresher courses, and was fine, even
for beginners. She spent a week being ridden on trails about 1-2 hours
long and by the end of the week, was ridden bareback on the trails.
She can follow or take the lead. She has not been ridden since,
until this last month. She is green on cues but learning quickly.
She has had 3 foals, all of solid Fell quality and near her height.
She is motherly and cares for them well. She has no known health issues.
She likes to be alpha mare but is respectful with humans. She has white
markings on her hind heels but you would have to look very hard to find
them, so she looks solid bay. She is currently in a more regular riding
schedule and will continue her training until sold. Price will increase
as training progresses. She could easily be trained to drive and pack.
She definately prefers trail riding over arena work and is very ready
to partner up with someone for life, once you show her you are there
for her as a partner. She is initially withdrawn and stand offish,
but within a week, it is obvious she is eager for a partner, a friend
for life. Current price good only through the month of May.

About Snohomish, WA
The Snohomish River Valley was originally inhabited by the Snohomish people, a Coast Salish tribe who lived between Port Gardner Bay and modern-day Monroe. An archaeological site near the confluence of the Snohomish and Pilchuck Rivers has indications of human habitation that began as early as 8,000 years before present. The Snohomish had contact with white explorers in the early 19th century, with their name recorded as "Sinnahamis" by John Work of the Hudson's Bay Company, among the first to also use the name to describe the river. The Snohomish were signatories of the Point Elliott Treaty in 1855, which relocated the tribe to the Tulalip Indian Reservation. In the early 1850s, the territorial government planned to construct a military road connecting Fort Steilacoom to Fort Bellingham, with a ferry crossing of the Snohomish River at Kwehtlamanish, a winter village of the Snohomish people.
