As Jemima’s last foal, Isabella has inherited the calm and willing temperament, good bone and beautiful looks of her grandparents, Naustdal and Friska. Unfortunately, shortly after birth, she contracted Infective Arthritis (joint ill) and as a result, has a damaged near hip joint. This does not stop her from walking, trotting and cantering and she has adapted well to having one slightly shorter hind leg. Isabella has undertaken groundwork, lungeing and Straightness Training. However, we would not ask her to carry the weight of a rider or pull a load in harness.
​
Because of her excellent bloodlines and temperament, Isabella will be used as a brood mare with imported frozen semen (Orkan Skova from Denmark) and it is expected that her progeny will be as athletic as her siblings and mother have been.
