00:00All my life, I've loved the Appaloosa, but there's only a few true Appaloosas left, and
00:14that's a travesty.
00:15A few years ago, I did a TV show called Around the World in 80 Trades.
00:20One of the things I traded was horses in Kyrgyzstan.
00:23Out of the blue, I got an email from an American woman living in New Zealand, and she's convinced
00:31that one of the horses that I bought may have been an original Foundation Appaloosa horse.
00:37I thought, I've got to get a hold of this guy and find out exactly where these horses
00:42are in Kyrgyzstan.
00:45To come to this place, we need to take your horses.
00:51It's a very long way, and it's very difficult to pass all of this pasture.
00:54He's worried about you.
00:56I'm worried about me.
01:00I really feel this is necessary.
01:02Well, there's only one thing in our way.
01:06That mountain.
01:07I'm freezing to death, and I want to get down there.
01:15I wish I would have married a cowboy.
01:18I'm so horsey, and none of my husbands were horsey at all.
01:34Look, over there!
01:36What do you think other Appaloosa breeders that you know are going to say about what
01:50you've found here?
01:51They're going to love this.
01:52They're going to be relieved.
01:53Relieved?
01:54At what?
01:55That they're here.
01:59The dedicated breeders really have made sacrifices.
02:05I suppose it's passion, but when you think there were only 109 out of tens of thousands,
02:12then you think somebody's got to do something.
