“Amigo”

Fall 2014

From the Desk of Vanita Mann ~~~~

As our show season has now ended it is really nice to reflect on thetimes we have had this past year. Thanksgiving is almost upon us andit is always a time to be thankful and to give thanks where it is neces-sary. I would personally like to Thank all of the Los Amigos BoardMembers: Jolie Hahn, Kelly Powers-Ponciano, Andres and ChristinaSalinas! Also to the other members who help to put on our shows thatwe couldn’t have done without, Carol Hacket, Helen Brown, RosieHefley, Judith Windwalker, Lisa Marie Walker, Carolyn Mittrick,Debbie Pye, Thea and Nicole Pichel, and Marilyn Doud. Thank youfrom the bottom of my HEART!!!

I believe we had a wonderful show with the Honorable Marco Dapeloand Oscar “Pico” Castillo judging our show. But…. We couldn’t havehad a better show without our Amazing Members who exhibited withtheir Beautiful Horses.

The Saturday evenings events with the Tapas Party and fun HalloweenCostume class, the Champagne class (which hasn’t seen that much par-ticipation in Years!!) The beautiful exhibition of our Musical Class andthe Rancho Cojunto was really a High-light for me. It is always a great timewhen we all get together and celebrate theLove of our Peruvian Horse!

As we go into the Holidays, I would liketo wish everyone a Happy, and Safe Holi-day Season!!!

May you eat a lot and not gain a Pound!!!

Love to All!!!

Growth Plates, Bone FusionSchedule of bone fusion is from the bottomup.The growth plate at the top of the coffinbone, in the hoof, is fused at birth.Short pastern - top & bottom between birthand 6 mos.Long pastern - top & bottom between 6 mos.and 1 yr.Cannon bone - top & bottom between 8mos. and 1.5 yrs.Small bones of knee - top & bottom on each, between 1.5 and 2.5 yrs.Bottom of radius-ulna - between 2 and 2.5 yrs.Weight-bearing portion of glenoid notch at top of radius - between 2.5and 3 yrs.Humerus - top & bottom, between 3 and 3.5 yrs.Scapula - glenoid or bottom (weight-bearing) portion - between 3.5 and 4 yrs.Hindlimb - lower portions same as forelimbHock - tibial & fibular tarsals - 4 yrs oldTibia - top & bottom, between 2.5 and 3 yrs.Femur - bottom, between 3 and 3.5 yrsNeck, between 3.5 and 4 yrs.; major and 3rd trochanters, between 3 and 3.5 yrs.Pelvis - growth plates on the points of hip, peak of croup (tubera sacrale), and points of buttock (tuberischii), between 3 and 4 yrs.Vertebral column (spine). A normal horse has 32 vertebrae between the back of the skull and the root ofthe dock, and there are several growth plates on each one, the most important of which is the one cappingthe centrum. The spine does not fuse until the horse is at least 5-1/2 years old. This figure applies to allhorses, small scrubby, range raised horses to huge Warm Bloods. The taller your horse and the longer itsneck, the later full fusion occurs. For a male add six months.Within the chain of vertebrae, the last to fully "close" are those at the base of the animal's neck--that'swhy the long-necked individual may go past 6 yrs. to achieve full maturity.

Ihave taken lessons from Jorge who alwaysfinds a way to makes my lessons fun andvery informative. I can’t wait to do mynext show and participate in many playdates! If I could choose to do anything allday I would choose to ride horses.Chloe

Horses have been my passion since I was very young. The first horse I tooklessons on was an Arabian, then I transitioned into Peruvian Pasos, what a huge

difference! I love the Peruvian breed be-cause of their noble temperament andsmooth gait. If I could, I would spendevery day at the ranch. Taking lessons isextremely fun. I try and learn everything Ican. I ride MLM Bandolero, he is probablymy favorite horse ever! Bandolero has anamazing personality and is always doingsomething funny with his mouth when abit is in it.

HUACO DORADO

In the mid-eighties, Huaco Dorado was a palomino stallion thenowned by Anne Chess. Old timers in the Peruvian Horse breedmay remember Anne and her beloved Huaco Dorado. This arti-cle relates to Anne, her horse, Hilario Carrera, and me endingwith the strangest of chance resulting in these people to returnto my life. I have included three photographs of paintingsCathy and I now own and their journey to us.

In the mid-eighties referenced above, my sister, Suzanne Bence,lived with Hilario Carrera in north Norco where Hilario ran atraining and breeding operation. Many will remember Hilario(now deceased) as being a Maestro Chalan who immigrated tothe US to become a famous trainer. This period of time wasprior to my involvement with the Peruvian Horse but I was rid-ing an Appaloosa, Babe, owned by my sister. I was, though,involved in amateur photography and accompanied Hilario andmy sister to many of the Southern California horse shows at thattime where I would take pictures from the rail and on thegrounds of horses I liked. It is the taking of these photos thatstarted the journey of these three paintings.

Huaco Dorado was a young stallion in trainingwith Hilario Carrera. He was quite well knownby owners at that time as Huaco had been trainedin the art of the Enfreadura and Dance of theMarinera, both high level reining accomplish-ments. Anne was a client owner who found outthat I did photography of our breed and looked atmany of my pictures. I did my own developmentand printing and had many pictures of manyhorses of that time. She liked what she saw andoffered to pay me to take pictures of her horse fora minimal fee. I made arrangements with Hilarioand on a Sunday afternoon went to Norco andwas given a riding exhibit of Huaco Dorado. Itook many pictures and supplied Anne with aproof set for review. She picked four pictures tobe printed which I gave her. At that time I fig-

ured these pictures would probably end up in picture frames at Anne’s home. I did hear sometime later that she hadpaintings made from these photos but had no information regarding artist, size, or framing.

After this time Huaco Dorado continued to be used as a demo horse at shows and demonstrations of the breed and variousfunctions. Anne became a carded judge in our breed and passed away after a freak horse accident in the early 2000’s.

Now fast forward to current times. Cathy actively reviews EBay looking for equestrian items as well as selling the sametype of items herself. One day in September I was in the living room watching the boob tube and Cathy asked me tocome into the computer room to look at a couple of paintings being offered for sale on EBay. She thought they lookedlike they could be paintings of Huaco Dorado but she couldn’t tell who the rider was. I looked at them and said the twolooked very similar to the pictures I had taken and that if so the rider was Hilario. I wasn’t sure but I told her that I hadtaken four pictures and heard Anne had had at least some converted to paintings.

HUACO DORADO (continued)I told her also that I was surprised that there wasn’t a painting of Huaco Dorado reared up where Hilario had himdancing side to side on his rear legs as part of the Dance of the Marinera. He was actually doing the demonstration to

music at this time.

This is when the story became really interesting for me.Cathy called the person selling the two paintings to try toget more information. She told the woman that I thoughtthere was a possibility that the paintings were renderingsof pictures I had taken years ago. She then asked how thewoman had acquired the two paintings and if by chancethere could be one of the same horse rearing. The womanexplained that part of her livelihood was the purchase andselling of possessions she acquired by buying out lots ofproperty abandoned at storage units. She would then, likethese two paintings, sell them on Ebay for income. Addi-tionally, she stated that indeed there was another paintingof the horse rearing but the framed paintings were woodframed with glass over and the rearing horse had crackedglass and therefore had not been listed with the other two.She also told Cathy that she had multiple other items fromthe same lot that had not yet been offered to sale. Theseincluded historical books (2) on the Peruvian Horse, acharcoal sketch of Huaco Dorado and Anne which hadbeen given to Anne by the Northwest Peruvian HorseClub as a thank you when she judged up there, and an-other painting of a horse named Eclipse del Sol. Whenasked how everything came to be abandoned Cathy wastold that all the woman knew was that payments on thestorage locker had ceased but she thought she had heardthat the last tenant was a chef. This meant nothing to usat the time. We had thought that the person most likely tohave Anne’s possessions would be her brother, TomChess, who also passed away a few years ago.

I later talked to my sister asking if Anne had any other relatives other than Tomand was told that she did not. She did tell me that Tom was a chef and there wasa story to the last painting not of Huaco Dorado. It seemed that Anne’s parentshad bought her Huaco Dorado. Both Anne and Tom showed at the time and Tomfelt left out and to make him feel better their parents decided to by him Eclipse.According to my sister this horse was a champion horse she thought from Idahothat Tom then began to show.

Huaco Dorado ultimately ended up being owned by Carolyn Walch. I don’tknow anything about Eclipse del Sol.

Cathy and I are now the proud owners of all three Huaco Dorado paintings; abook titled “The Peruvian Paso and His Classic Equitation” written by VerneAlbright and presented with a signed label of his appreciation of Anne on December 1, 1993; and a book titled “ELCABALLO PERUANO DE PASO” written and signed by Jose Antonio Dapelo V also hand messaged and signed byits author. This last book was published in Lima, Peru in 1995 and was a limited edition.

I felt this story worth writing as it so clearly shows what a small world of horses we own and raise is, and how thingscan make complete circles in our lives. It just seems so amazing to me that all of this history could so easily havebeen lost in a storage unit yet represented so much to all the people involved for so many years. This particular storyinvolved so many people and horses famous in our history as a Southern California horse world. I hope you enjoymy story as much as I enjoy reliving it.

ured these pictures would probably end up in picture frames at Anne’s home. I did hear sometime later that she hadpaintings made from these photos but had no information regarding artist, size, or framing.

After this time Huaco Dorado continued to be used as a demo horse at shows and demonstrations of the breed and variousfunctions. Anne became a carded judge in our breed and passed away after a freak horse accident in the early 2000’s.

Now fast forward to current times. Cathy actively reviews EBay looking for equestrian items as well as selling the sametype of items herself. One day in September I was in the living room watching the boob tube and Cathy asked me tocome into the computer room to look at a couple of paintings being offered for sale on EBay. She thought they lookedlike they could be paintings of Huaco Dorado but she couldn’t tell who the rider was. I looked at them and said the twolooked very similar to the pictures I had taken and that if so the rider was Hilario. I wasn’t sure but I told her that I hadtaken four pictures and heard Anne had had at least some converted to paintings.

HUACO DORADO (continued)I told her also that I was surprised that there wasn’t a painting of Huaco Dorado reared up where Hilario had himdancing side to side on his rear legs as part of the Dance of the Marinera. He was actually doing the demonstration to

music at this time.

This is when the story became really interesting for me.Cathy called the person selling the two paintings to try toget more information. She told the woman that I thoughtthere was a possibility that the paintings were renderingsof pictures I had taken years ago. She then asked how thewoman had acquired the two paintings and if by chancethere could be one of the same horse rearing. The womanexplained that part of her livelihood was the purchase andselling of possessions she acquired by buying out lots ofproperty abandoned at storage units. She would then, likethese two paintings, sell them on Ebay for income. Addi-tionally, she stated that indeed there was another paintingof the horse rearing but the framed paintings were woodframed with glass over and the rearing horse had crackedglass and therefore had not been listed with the other two.She also told Cathy that she had multiple other items fromthe same lot that had not yet been offered to sale. Theseincluded historical books (2) on the Peruvian Horse, acharcoal sketch of Huaco Dorado and Anne which hadbeen given to Anne by the Northwest Peruvian HorseClub as a thank you when she judged up there, and an-other painting of a horse named Eclipse del Sol. Whenasked how everything came to be abandoned Cathy wastold that all the woman knew was that payments on thestorage locker had ceased but she thought she had heardthat the last tenant was a chef. This meant nothing to usat the time. We had thought that the person most likely tohave Anne’s possessions would be her brother, TomChess, who also passed away a few years ago.

I later talked to my sister asking if Anne had any other relatives other than Tomand was told that she did not. She did tell me that Tom was a chef and there wasa story to the last painting not of Huaco Dorado. It seemed that Anne’s parentshad bought her Huaco Dorado. Both Anne and Tom showed at the time and Tomfelt left out and to make him feel better their parents decided to by him Eclipse.According to my sister this horse was a champion horse she thought from Idahothat Tom then began to show.

Huaco Dorado ultimately ended up being owned by Carolyn Walch. I don’tknow anything about Eclipse del Sol.

Cathy and I are now the proud owners of all three Huaco Dorado paintings; abook titled “The Peruvian Paso and His Classic Equitation” written by VerneAlbright and presented with a signed label of his appreciation of Anne on December 1, 1993; and a book titled “ELCABALLO PERUANO DE PASO” written and signed by Jose Antonio Dapelo V also hand messaged and signed byits author. This last book was published in Lima, Peru in 1995 and was a limited edition.

I felt this story worth writing as it so clearly shows what a small world of horses we own and raise is, and how thingscan make complete circles in our lives. It just seems so amazing to me that all of this history could so easily havebeen lost in a storage unit yet represented so much to all the people involved for so many years. This particular storyinvolved so many people and horses famous in our history as a Southern California horse world. I hope you enjoymy story as much as I enjoy reliving it.

From Dyan Paquette ~~I read about a Peruvian gelding at the San Diego Humane Society via Fal-con Ridge Rescue on Facebook. Nicky Branch had spotlighted 4 differentbreeds that were there and in need of rescuing. It was mentioned that therehad been an adoption event for horses that the Bonita branch had and hehad not been adopted due to behavior issues. Something told me I shouldgo look at him. I couldn't sleep all night. The next day I got to Bonitaearly to see him. The photos of him didn't do him justice. He was juststunning in person. I was told he was recently gelded and he was about 10years old. He was brought in with nearly 30 other horses that had comefrom north San Diego county in a hoarder situation. Most all horses werein together and there was so much manure that the gates wouldn't open toremove the horses. Most were vastly underweight. Feet were atrocious.Many mares were pregnant. "Sunny" as he was called, had been in a sepa-rate pen and wasn't as underweight but had to be dart tranquilized to be

touched. He has some scarring on bothsides of his nose that almost appears to beburned. I loved him at first sight. His looks re-minded me of my mare that i lost 2 years ago.Same color, same chrome. She was 7 when istarted her. It was the same story all over again. ihad brought some carrots and he came right overto the gate to be scratched and eat carrots. Itseemed like there was hope.The shelter asked me if i wanted to see the otherPeruvians. I wasn't aware that there were more.One 8 year old bay mare was already adoptedbut a 15 and 18 year old are still waiting for ahome. The 15 year old mare is very beautifuland has a kind face. the staff really liked her andsaid she was easy to handle. I paid $100 adop-

tion fee and made arrangements to pick up my gelding the next day. I wish i could have taken all of them.Two of my best friends went with me the next day to help. The staff at the shelter was very reluctant to let me"play" with him in his corral before he was loaded via chute and hauled off the property but i was adamant Iwanted 15 minutes with him. He had a halter that had been left on him for the entire 2 months at the shelter so all iwent in the corral with was a lead rope. no carrots this time. Within 5 minutes he had turned to face me and let mescratch him and in 5 more i had a lead rope clipped on and was able to lead him around the corral. I asked the staffto open the gate and let me lead him out. I just felt trust there from him. I led him to the trailer door and he wasvery willing to sniff the trailer and put his front two feet in. A little pressure from behind and he hopped in. Thestaff was shocked. I guess he had really been a hellion while at the facility.I have re-named him Llamativo because he is quite a head-turner, and of course, he needed a spanish name. Afterone week of round pen lessons, he has learned to join up and he follows me around like a big dog. He has learnedto not be "mouthy" and learned to pick up his feet. He is easy to catch but has issues with the halter touching hisnose where the scars are. He loves being brushed all over. He is learning "this is my space, this is your space" andde-sensitizing games have begun. A plastic bag is not so scary and he has walked across some metal fencing on theground. He is wicked smart and loves to play. He has a ton of energy and is super athletic. I have to assume therehas been no riding on him so we have a lot of work before we get to that.I have done so much with my Peruvians. I have done cow work, mountainriding, camping and trail riding in at least 6 states, trail trials and enduranceriding, some showing and a million parades. My guess is that Tivo would behappy to go straight up the side of a mountain and he has the energy andbody to do it. I'll keep you posted. Our story is just beginning…..It feels very rewarding to have helped "save" him. I have recently found outthat due to his behavior, he was on the euthanasia list at the shelter. I amlooking for any information on his previous life or breeding. If he looks fa-miliar, please contact me. In what I do, I don't need his papers, but some-times a bit of knowledge can go a long way to help me train him.Thank you! Dyan and Tivo

Principles of Western Dressage - WDAA"Western dressage training has been founded on five principles: straightness, control of the front end,

control of the hind end, collection, and canter departures. Functionally, the list is not far from the tradi-tional six building blocks of the German Training Scale. The German scale focuses on the principles ofrelaxation, rhythm, contact, impulsion, straightness, and collection."http://www.westerndressageassociation.org/featured/east-meets-west-a-look-at-the-growing-sport-of-western-dressage/

Principles of Cowboy Dressage"Soft Feel is the guiding principle of Cowboy Dressage™. It is a wordless, intimate and for some a spiri-

tual communication within the partnership between horse and rider. Soft feel is not only sending mes-sages but having the sensitivity and awareness to feel and receive the message the horse sends back.The timing and use of the Release, Relaxation, Preparation and Execution are the basic fundamentals of
