Abby was imported from England in 1997, and in typical Connemara fashion, handled the 5 hour flight and 3 hour truck ride home from the airport with out batting an eyelid! She was started under saddle in 1998 and is green broken, however her training has been interrupted by her many gorgeous foals. Abby's 2000 colt, Elphin Song Sparrow, stood at stud at Elk Creek Farm in Michigan for several years before being gelded. |
Abby is very well bred, carrying 3 of the
only 15 Super Premium Stallion lines. Her daughters, many of whom are
inspected and approved, are contributing to Connemara breeding programs
all over Canada and the US. Abby's love of being a mother is only surpassed
by her love of eating, a full-time occupation as far as she is concerned!
