He’s four months old. Sampson is Velvet’s baby and JJ’s baby. He’s a gold champagn Missouri Fox Trotter. His personality is extreme left brain.
Jenny is getting the foals together today for the vet to give him their coggins test and to get their health certificates for the big winter move to Florida. Jenny’s orders were that the foals were to be in the round pen. Upon arriving home, the foals and mares were all out running around, having a blast. Finally Jenny gets the foals into the round pen. During her call to yell at Tony for not shutting the gate to the round pen, Sampson walks over to the gate, picks up the pin and then opens the door with his head.
Jenny stopped yelling at Tony and got all the colts back into the round pen. She was talking to me after that while Samson was trying to untie the rope that she used to keep the gate shut.
He’s only 4 months old and has discovered the secret to gaits!
Samson was a gift to Nichole from Susan and Velvet after Nichole won the two multiple world championships for 2009 Youth Versatility and Youth Ranch Horse Versatility World Grand Championships
