Tia Dec 1 2010
Tia is doing well, she seems stocked up on her right hind but she doesn’t favor it or move lame on it. I put her in the arena for a bit last night with Slam and Vanna and she rolled and ran and bucked with the two of them. She is very vocal and has quite a distictive…
Tia Oct 28 2010

Finn has really been giving us fits trying to figure out how to keep his hooves comfortable! Our amazing farrier Jake Cowden recently decided to take Finn on as a foster horse, moving him to his home to be able to closely monitor him and make more frequent and subtle…
Einstein and Ivy at play!
Sometimes goofy horses just need time to be goofy. But look at how deftly Ivy moves Einstein around the arena.…almost as if he were…a cow? Does Ivy have a secret past as a cutting horse?
