Latvian horse

[WoopsiiD]

My friend has a horse that was imported from Latvia. She is a lovely mare-bit of a fruitcase but show potential as xc or sj as she appears to just love to jump.
However, she has a very strange brand on her botty that I cant even begin to describe. Her passport also mentions that her vacs include one for anthrax! We googled her last owner and it came up in Latvian so we couldnt understand it but it was something to do with 'experimenting' and 'vaccination' the only words we could make out!
Anyone good at detective work.....or speak Latvian??

Oh how strange

Sorry I'm no help , can't speak latvian , just mastered english

lol!! I have never in all my years seen anthrax in the documents!! I am going to see if I can get a good pic of the brand and scan the paperwork. Its very strange. My friend just wants to know as she had hoped to breed from her one day but...

Anthrax vaccination is quite common in herbivores from a anthrax endemic country

My friend has a Latvian warmblood, no weird jabs though, but he is totally and utterly mental.

She works with V good show jumper who also thinks horsey has a few sandwiches short of a picnic!!

red Oakley is just the same! A complete nutjob! A very big and powerful nutjob! They jump like stags though!! She can go on for ever, but put her in the stable and its a different story!!

I know a girl from Latvia!! If you PM me the details I can email them to her and see if she can make head or tail of it!!

The Eilberg's lovely horse Marakov is a Latvian warmblood. Gorgeous animal. I'd have one any day if he is typical of the breed LOL.
