Congratulations Barrie Getz and Copperfox Whizzer

Copperfox Superman aka Whizzer

Barrie Getz purchased a beautiful Copperfox Model Horse from us at BreyerWest 2017 which was held in Albany, Oregon from March 24th to March 26th. He is the Copperfox  “Loughnatousa Fabio” aka Superman model. For those unfamiliar with the Copperfox Horses, this is the Irish Sports Horse or Finnigan mold in a lovely red bay. When Barrie stopped by our booth to look at Superman, she was quick to point out that unlike the other Supermans, this one did not have a white star on his face. Wow, what a neat variation! We jokingly called him The Starless Wonder.

The very next weekend, Barrie took Superman to his first model horse show. Prior to showing him, Barrie gave Superman a ‘bath’. After Barrie put Superman in the show ring, she heard the judge ask why the horse was ‘peeing’. With much joy, showers clamored around the show table and were delighted to see Superman again peeing onto the table. The water was coming from a small air hole which was conspicuously (or not so conspicuously) placed in Superman’s groin area! There was a lot of laughter and Superman was officially named The Wizard of Ahh’s nickname Whizzer.

The story doesn’t stop here however, Whizzer went on to win a Championship and was awarded a beautiful blue rosette. Congratulations Barrie Getz and Whizzer!
