Do you remember the feeling of being a kid and getting to hang out with your older cousins around the holidays, or being allowed to tag along with your older sibling? How cool you felt, how much fun you had? We have to imagine that’s how Venturo is feeling this week meeting Alvaro — his very first friend.
Wednesday is getting a much deserved break from being her colt’s only playmate, but rest assured she’s never too far in case the two whippersnappers get out of hand. It’s been great for Alvaro too, who has been keeping things very much in check around his new young friend, and respecting Wednesday’s ground rules for their playdates.
Venturo is on his way to be weaned, and having a buddy to help with the transition will make the process easier. Just a few days into Venturo and Alvaro’s budding friendship and we can almost hear Vinnie saying “see ya later mom, I’m going to play with my friends!” Fine by her.
