Sherman,(Flying W Farms Undercover) Georgian Grande police horse, did fabulous for his first ever mini-trial in the Green Horse division and came in 1st place! Not to mention that he pounded the pavement on patrol at the Willoughby Community Days for 10 hours the day before the mini-trial! And this boy goes barefoot! (WOW! talk about a work ethic!)

From:Taya Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2000 Subject: Sherman Just a quick update on Sherman. He is doing wonderfully- he worked the Geauga County Fair for three days- kids all over him, rides, noises, demolition derby- never took a wrong step. He did a 15 mile trail ride (his very first trail ride)- no problem- under overpasses with cars roaring above, nthrough creeks, across roads. And just this past Sunday he did his first parade. He did it by himself (the other horses did not come) and he followed a team of young oxen and a choir of bagpipes. Behind us there were all the fire engines and ambulances with lights and sirens going. Oh, and it was sleeting. Hecould not have cared less. What a really nice horse he is turning out to be! -Taya From: Taya Workum Sent: Friday, June 07, 2002 1:54 PM Subject: RE: Sherman Sherman is now an official police horse. He has the title of "Patrolhorse" for the department I work for (Willoughby Hills Police Department). The kids adore him, and he seems to take everything in stride. I have attached a pic of him (and me) from last month.Sherman will have an article about him in the paper here in Cleveland (The News-Herald) next Tuesday. (June 11, 2002)He stands a full 16.3hh now, and does not seem to be done growing. He still has not broadened out- all his energy seems to be towards height still! I took him to the National Mounted Police Colloquium in Lexington, KY last August. He had just turned 3, and we took 5th out of 60 some in the Equitation division. Pretty impressive since I really had not been working with him- just letting him grow up. We had really not cantered undersaddle until the competition- and we had to go numerous times around the big covered arena each direction during the prelims. He did great! Then, in the Finals, he had to canter from the halt in each direction. The first direction, he took two trot steps, then cantered (correctly), and the second direction he struck off correctly from the halt. Smart Boy! I plan to take him back to Kentucky this year, perhaps we will do even better... I need to develop some more pics- but here is one during the Obstacle Course Competition at Lexington this past year (3 year old). Hope you enjoy the pictures! Taya
