Flicka

We moved Flicka in April 2012 from The Netherlands. The old owner had to let her go and she contacted us because she thought Sun Dance Ranch should be a great place for her horse. Her story and profile fit with the ranch so we took her by trailer to Sweden. Flicka means girl in Swedish, so it’s funny that she had that name already in The Netherlands and lives in Sweden now.
Flicka is a Brown New Forest crossing from 2005 and around 150 cm high. She is an easy and quiet horse. In the beginning of the ride/lesson she is really really slow, but after 10 minutes she’s warm and she can easily catch up with the rest of the group. A bit of a diesel we always say. For example, she needs a little motivation to get her very active and attentive in the lesson. She likes to dominate the other horses but she’s not really that high in rank. Everyone who has her as week horse is always absolutely in love with her. And with a little motivation she is going in to the water for a swim.    In the herd she is a lot with Kalle. If you take Flicka from the field then you often get Kalle with you as well. He is always nearby Flicka, as if they were a married couple.
