hello from Oregon

[painthorse72]

I thought I should introduce myself and the family. My name is Melissa (painthorse72) I live in central oregon with my 12yr daughter, 4 horses 3 dogs and 2 cats. I currently have a 9yr black/white paint Mercedes that was rescued at 2 from an auction and despite always saying no mares will never go anywere. My german shepherd Sky just turned 6 her 3yr son Lucky belongs to my daughter and has panus (genetic eye desease) he looks pretty stylish in his doggles. Our third dog is also my daughters hes a 6 1/2 yr jack russell that is very laid back. My daughters 12yr pony Thistle is being leased out at this time to a 4yr little girl not far from us as my daughter has outgrown him and is riding a 14yr QH/Morgan registered name Chocolate Sonoma but my daughter calls her Mokie. Then we have our newest addition Ribbon of Hope aka Rain, she is the cutest 3 month old little pinto (going grey). Some of you may know her story from HGS. We currently have a 5 month old buckskin QH not named yet that is being boarded here. Without further ado heres some pictures.
