Dashing Through the Snow is a wonderful 2009 Christmas Painted Pony. It brings back memories of going on a one-horse sleigh to Grandmother's House. Isn't that what the rhyme says? Just looking at Dashing helps you envision an old-fashioned, horse-drawn sleigh ride down a quiet country road on a cold, sparkling winter day after a heavy snow. The jingling harness bells and squeak of sleigh runners on the hard-packed snow, the steady breathing and prancing steps of a stocky English Shire who seems to enjoy the outing as much as you do, and the unspoken promise of a roaring fire and mug of steaming hot cider awaiting you at home. Get the home fires burning while you take time for this sleigh ride. Or, perhaps, you stay inside and just set this Christmas pony on the fireplace mantel. Created by the artists, Karlynn Keyes with Bryn Wilkins Lawson, the mottled grey skin of this painted pony offsets the red harness and other adornments. Made of resin. Dimensions: 6"
