SHANNON'S STORY
Shenandoah's Fancy aka Shannon

Shannon in her Prime

Shannon at 26 years of age
When I went to check out Vulcan from an ad I had seen, it was obvious that both horses living at this home were
well-loved and well-cared-for. The 'other' horse turned out to be Vulcan's dam Shannon, an early-twenties, still
beautiful, registered Missouri Foxtrotter.
After I had purchased Vulcan, due to changes in their situation necessitating a change of residence, Shannon went
to live with a couple in SC with the agreement that if she ever needed a home, she could come and live with her
son.
After a couple of years that call came and we picked her up and drove her to the farm. She celebrated her 26th
birthday after coming to us and will hopefully be a part of the farm for many years to come. She is a delightful
old girl and we enjoy her immensely. She helps settle in a new horse wonderfully and shares her private paddock
and pasture with one or two of the others at a time on a rotational basis - as long as they behave. Any 'chasing'
or 'dominance' of Shannon and they are banished forever
from her area as she is no longer quick enough to protect herself.
She has become the 'mother' to Thunder as well as Vulcan and a 'best friend' to Titan who always lets us know when
he wishes to spend time with Shannon rather than his herd. She and Buck also enjoy time together away from the
'youngsters'.
