My name is La Comtesse, or as my mom's owner Michelle Tyner calls me, Coco. I was born in March 2011 at Newgotton Farm and my mother's name is Festival. Mom recently went to live with a new human, an eleven year old girl, to teach her how to ride really well. Humans are hard to train so she'll be busy. I don't miss mom too too much because I still have my big sisters, Lareine and Louise Quatorze here with me. We just call Louise Quatorze by the name of Lily. She's looking for a new home.

Mom was 20 years old when she had me. She's a great mom. I got to stay in the stall with her after I was born and follow her around everywhere. Sometimes, when mom was getting tacked up for a ride, I'd sneak past everyone and get to run around the arena by myself. Here is a picture of me a few days old aren't I cute???
La Comtesse March 2011
The summer was pretty easy for me. I just got to bug my mom a lot and run around outside with my big sisters. They are nice but I think I'm mom's favorite because she shared her lunch with me. I also went on a ride in a big box and when I got out a bunch of people looked at me and mom. I must have been really cute because Michelle was happy and said I got a silver RPSI rating. But then they touched me with something hot and that hurt. It left a mark on my backside.

I've never met my dad but I have heard plenty about him. His name is Landonn and he lives at Topline Stables/Walden in Aurora. I think I have a lot of half brothers and sisters in the world because their pictures keep popping up on his facebook page. LANDONN-I-Holsteiner-Stallion
Today something different happened though. I was outside with Lareine, she was babysitting me. She does a good job of it. I think its because she's expecting a baby of her own. Anyway, I was outside and Michelle put a leash on me and brought me in. She handed me off to this other young girl. I don't know who she was but I think she cleaned my stall this summer and gave me new shavings to play in all the time. That was nice of her.

The humans took me into the arena and made me run around in circles. Michelle carried around the spooky bag but it didn't bother me too much. The other girl just stood and watched. I don't know what she was looking at but if you want to try and figure it out here's a video (the dog barking is George, I like to chase him around whenever I can but you might want to turn down your volume just in case).
I let them hook me back up to the lead line and take me inside again to my stall. The humans were talking and I think I got sold to the young girl. Not sure what that means. I heard something about the girl not being allowed to baby me and being stern. I can probably charm my way around that as long as Michelle isn't looking.
Hopefully the girl will come back and give me more shavings to play in. I'd like that.
