Honeycutt Update from Dec 3, 2007

Poor Honeycutt. He does not like this weather at all. There’s a huge pine tree branch that fell into his paddock last night.…he is eyeing it as if to say “Hmmm, could I somehow fashion that into a boat to sail away in?“ We are all thinking about building an ark…that...

Honeycutt Update from Oct 31, 2007

Honeycutt got his feet trimmed yesterday. He was a pretty good boy for the farrier.…he’s getting better and better at dealing with new people. There was one little incident that really surprised me.…he had a moment of panic while in the cross ties, and he went flying...

Honeycutt Update from Sept 5, 2007

Honeycutt got his feet trimmed yesterday, and he was a superstar for the farrier. Of course we did it all very gently and carefully, but still, he did great and I was very proud of him. A couple days ago, I decided to try lunging him with a surcingle on…he stood...
