Today Izadora has a vet appointment to open up her caslick and Samantha has a vet appointment to put in a caslick. Hoerr Vet. clinic told me I can bring them at the same time around 12:30pm which will help as far as time.
Raven and Jenis were both waiting for me this morning so they were grained but both are really looking good. It helps that breeding season is just about over and we have had no mares in season right now. When we have a mare come in, Raven just pines away hanging over the gate so hopeful.
A lady emailed about an 11 year old registered breeding stock black paint mare that needs some rehab. We will probably be getting her in pretty quickly. The best thing in the world for a horse that has some issues is to put them with our herd. The herd teaches them that people are good and kind. That is one reason we miss Aries now that he is at his new home. We would always put the weanlings or horses that were afraid of people with Aries and after a couple of months they would end up JUST LIKE HIM. Hanging around us asking for attention. I still remember when Sophie first came in, she wanted nothing to do with any of us, she would run as soon as we would get to the farm. She was nervous when we tied her up and did not like to be groomed. After being in with Aries only about a month, she started being braver, trying to figure out why Aries would stick with us when he could go anywhere, then this spring Sophie was a changed horse. As soon as she sees anyone coming she is at the gate. She loves attention and actually stands nice for tacking up. She still needs help standing quietly for a bath but even that is coming along.
