Whisper Update — April 26, 2009
From Amy: I’m currently Whisper’s foster mom and here’s a quick update. She’s doing very well. Healthy, curious, and friendly. Very level-headed and just sensitive enough. I find her very easy to train. She was a bit pushy when she arrived a month or so ago, but is…
Dory Update — April 24, 2009
Sorry updates have been delayed on Dory, but here are some photos I took of her yesterday. She looks fantastic, all shedded out! And is it just me, or does she have more spots this year?
Update on Phoenix from his adopter
I have been very remiss in posting pictures of Phoenix — I am a horrible photographer!!! So with the cherry blossoms in bloom at Edensgate, I hired someone to take pictures of my beautiful boy. He hasn’t completely shedded out yet but I didn’t want to miss the cherry…
Lola Update from Apr 9, 2009
Lola is shedding out the matts and will soon be so pretty. Daphine did her feet today and was impressed with the color she will be soon.
Annie Update from Apr 8 2009
Update from Kyle: I’ve been working with Annie over the last couple of months, though she has had the last couple of weeks mostly off. Annie is a special mare. For the right person, I have no doubt she will be a horse of a lifetime. When I first started working with…
Whisper Update — April 7, 2009
One of our supporters, Barbara, posted this update: So I took Sera for a ride today, to make up for her being “neglected” while I was on my month-long Europe/Egypt trip. As we were coming back down the trail, I noticed a familiar rear end through the trees.….…
Sinatra Update from Apr 6 2009
“Sinatra the Wild White Stallion battles Benedetto for ultimate supremacy of the herd. Who will win? Only one stallion will survive this fierce battle to the death!” Oh wait, that was something I saw on Discovery channel the other night. My mistake. Benny wanted a…

April Training Notes: Lola
Lola has been making good progress this month, including some good independent trotting without the help of a ground person. I found that she loves to trot with Kat in the arena so I’ve been riding her during Kat’s rides so she gets some “help” when she starts getting…
April Training Notes: Jewel
Jewel is doing well, learning to lunge and develop some ground manners. She still pulls on the halter when lunging and she overreacts when asked to go out on the circle. Treatment to the injury she sustained to her left hind foot was actually beneficial to…
April Training Notes: Phoenix
Phoenix’s rehab is going well. We’ve re-introduced walking under saddle. He is up to 20 mins of riding, continuing some hand walking up to 30 without rider. Increasing both by 5 mins gradually over each the week until we reach 45–60 mins then continue with that…
April Training Notes: Skittles
Skittles is doing very well and is now going walk trot and canter under saddle. She did seem to lose a little weight this month, possibly due to coming into season, so I increased her mash again just a bit. She is muscling up a bit along the top line mostly over her…
