MDF Little Wolffee {the visit}

During the last week of January 2014, I found a little gem, a chincoteague filly who went by the name of Princess Peach. She was in need of a lot of TLC and I couldn't help but notice that beautiful kind eye she had. She was a diamond in the rough. 

I brought her home and named her MDF Little Wolffee and Keena for short. Keena was derived from her original name her breeder's own children gave her, Princess Peach. I started out calling her Peachy Keen, which evolved to Keena. 

The MDF is to recognize her breeder, Misty Dream Farm. Keena is directly descended from the Arabian stallion Premierre, who was released onto Assateague to live out his retired years breeding with the chincoteague ponies, adding to their gene pool to help reduce genetic issues among the herd.

Keena's Grand dam was Wolffe, who was island bred and was the daughter of Premierre. Hence, where the name Little Wolffee comes from. 

Keena's story with me begins here. 





















As you can see from these pictures, Keena was in need of a lot of TLC. And, maybe if you look hard enough, you just might be able to see the diamond in the rough I saw!
