2013 purebred bay mare

A letter from Sue Forbes, Colorado

We purchased Alenza in Nov 2014 from Talking Waters Arabians, we were fortunate enough to actually see her in her element at the ranch.  This is where she grew up as babies should, running, playing, figuring out how to be a horse in a huge pasture with other horses.  When we walked out to the pasture, there she stood with 2 National Champion mares, quite an impressive site; they all walked up and greeted us.  We instantly had a connection with Alenza. Bobbi handed the halter to my 12 year old daughter and said, 'you can go and catch her'.  Before long my daughter was leading Alenza out of the pasture and walking her around.  Alenza is only 2 1/2yrs old and was quite the lady for my daughter.  I could tell she had a lot of great ground work already done with her thanks to Bobbi.

Alenza wasn't your typical 2 1/2 year old, she was curious but not wild or over excited she just took things in stride, and was great friends with the ranch cat. 

The day we went to pick her up and take her home we arrived at the ranch very early, she said goodbye to the other horses, loaded into the trailer all by herself, and didn't make a sound.  My daughter had seen the TW freeze brand on Alitas Jewell and asked if we could have Alenza freeze branded.  That way she would always represent Talking Waters maybe even at Nationals some day.  

Once we got her home and settled she fit right in and made friends with the other mares.  She is so willing to learn and please, she learns so quickly and a little praise goes a long way with her.  She is such a pleasure to work with and has the best attitude.  All the imprinting that Bobbi does with her babies is very evident.   Alenza will approach whatever she is scared of, smell it and be done with it.  Her training is really coming along. 

We are so excited about her future with us and are hoping to have her in a really good place before she goes to the trainer.  I could not be more pleased with the love and care Bobbi puts into her horses, as they are just as loving, caring and trusting.  I would definitely recommend Talking Waters Arabians to anyone looking for quality show horse raised with great care and love.
