Siena used to be a pack/trail horse for a company in the Jasper, AB area. I bought her from a horse trader who had pastured her over two years for the previous owner. While she was pastured she had a coloured foal, or so we are told. At any rate, we believe she is a Thoroughbred crossed with Quarter Horse or Paint. She has a brand on her right thigh that is registered to her previous owner.

Siena was eight years old when we bought her in June 2004 and though she has not had a lot of advanced training outside the basics (she doesn't yet neck rein) she is very calm and not at all spooky. Her feet were in terrible condition when we got her. Her trimming had been neglected while she was pastured and the resulting condition was not pretty, but my farrier assured me that the toe to coronet cracks would grow out. She is a good horse for a confident beginner rider. We sold Siena in June 2005 to a wonderful young lady named Cristy Butler and her husband who live in Williams Lake. Last we heard they were absolutely thrilled with Siena!

Here are a few photos of Siena!
