Hiya!
So, what's been happening? Let's see.....
Tempest is ready to head off to a foster home tomorrow. It has been a really long road with this beautiful girl, but she is making great strides. Now she is ready for some one on one to hopefully take her to the next level. I have never had a Mini in with so much fear. Luckily, Tempest honestly is interested in being around us and is willing to work with us.
Zephyr was sent for driving training. This big boy really needed a job! He is apparently turning some heads and there is talk of an adoption in the works there!
TJ is continuing his life as a metaphorical onion at his foster home. He is making progress, one layer at a time.
Tolmie will be returning from his foster home tomorrow. His gut issues (from ulcers) appear to be under control and so it's time to test his ability to handle a change.
Savvy is now at our overflow barn. He is best buds with the host Mini there, Jupiter. Savvy has just blossomed into a very fun little Mini. No more major fear issues and he is in great shape! I'll throw a great photo of him in here from the other day...
HappyGoLucky has also just been brought to the overflow barn. He is really loving going for walks on all the trails there. I would love to see him start driving perhaps.
Chipper is adopted! Aurora is adopted! Lark and Wren are both adopted! Jack and Ani are adopted!
Timothy is still at his foster home awaiting surgery. Our surgical vet has a broken hand, so he is just hanging out for a while until we can do his crypt surgery. He is doing great and gets to go for lots of walks there!
Breeze is the current star of our main facility. She is such a hilarious little thing!
So, that brings us to new arrivals...
We were happy to welcome Stormy and Ginny, who were seized by the SPCA last year. They are both doing well now and we are very happy to assist in continuing their rehabilitation process.
We also welcomed back our darling girl, Opal. She had to return to us yet once again when her adopter faced some life changes. I jokingly refer to Opal as "Boomerang" now. She holds the record for most times returned (3) but it is never the fault of this sweet girl... just circumstances. We are always happy to take our Minis back. Of course we would prefer that all placements were permanent, but we fully understand that things can happen that impact the ability to have and care for horses. We just want what is best for everybody.
I guess that brings us up to yesterday. We went for a bit of a drive and picked up the tiniest little pair of Minis. Very friendly and very cute! Ginger and Roman needed a place to go as their family is breaking up. They are settling in well and next week will be a busy one for them as they meet our vet, among other things. :)
