Please welcome Angel

Please welcome our newest Marsh Tacky horse to Brookgreen Gardens.  Her name is Full Southern Gospel, and we call her Angel.  She is a little over a year old.

Angel joins our white mule, Elvira, and replaces our two Marsh Tacky fillies, Slough and Tilly.  We own Elvira, but our Marsh Tackies are loaned to us by an owner in Florence, South Carolina.  We get the young horses used to seeing new people and simple tasks like grooming and walking.  When they are old enough, they return to Florence to be trained on a saddle. 

Elvira is 19 years old this year.  She is retired from riding, so we do not even own a saddle.  She is very good with the new horses. 

Angel has beautiful coloration, and has a dorsal stripe (from head to tail) that is common in Marsh Tackies.  Please come visit Angel at our Plantation Barn!
