Watch Stormy and his owner, Beka Weaver, in their application video for the Versatile Horse and Rider Competition at the 2011 Ohio Equine Affaire.
Stormy is a 15 year old Appaloosa gelding that at the age of 9, in just one night, was rendered completely blind from Equine Recurrent Uveitis (Moon Blindness). Beka, his owner from the time he was a three-year-old, was ultimately told to put Stormy down because he would not have a good quality of life being blind.
I think you will agree, Beka proved everyone wrong! You can visit Beka and Stormy on their Facebook fan page.
Below is the qualifying run for Stormy and Beka at Equine Affaire at the Ohio Expo Center in Columbus, on the second day of qualifying for Craig Cameron‘s Extreme Cowboy Race.
