Lost Creek Ranger Koa x Hi Trl Fiona
Finn is a very self-controlled and mellow fellow with an outstanding Classic coat. His gaits are correct and his movement strong. He also has that rare innate knowledge that there's a time and place to let his energy loose.
While we didn't expect Finn would be taller than either parent, it's now obvious he is most likely going to be shorter, a problem we're seeing in all of our 2022 youngsters. At two years, Finn measured only 41". In hindsight, we believe it was a result of the entire local 2022 hay crop not being able to be cut and baled until overly mature, but we don't know for sure and in any case, that's water under the bridge for Finn.
Finn has what it takes to be a fine companion packer for someone who doesn't need to take everything including the kitchen sink or haul out big game; he could also make someone very happy as a charismatic and personable non-working pet, too.
Finn is currently away on a care lease with his uncle Cynamon. They are keeping an older horse company and gaining additional life experience as well.
Finn can be short for several names in Gaelic languages; it's also the Anglicized spelling of Fionn, the male version of Fiona. The meaning is usually "fair" or "white", and those definitely fit Finn's appearance — white with light markings.
