Phoenix Photos and Hock Swelling
Phoenix is doing great! The main concern with him right now is a little bit of a swollen left hind hock that I am keeping an eye on. I think he probably overexerted himself somehow. Other than that, he is doing really well and I took tons of hair off him yesterday. I…
Holly Update — May 5, 2008
Holly’s foster mom update: Holly and Emma got to go play in the big field for the first time. They had a great time running and playing. Although, Holly would rather eat the grass. She looks really good. I have not seen her come into heat yet. Emma has been in twice.…
Annie Update from April 28 2008
Our farrier tried again to get her back feet done — this is the 3rd or 4th time now she has worked with her and she is also an experienced trainer, but Annie is having none of it. She will let you brush her hind feet, but if you touch them with a bare hand, she will…

Sinatra Update from Apr 27 2008

Training Update on Cameo
Cameo has been in training with Andrea Lucianna for 30 days, and things have not been entirely rosy for our little bay mare. She arrived at Half-Trak Farm with a bit of an eye infection that had to be treated with daily eye drops…a routine that she did not care for…
Foster/Training Update on Ginger
Update from Kim on Ginger: She has settled in really well, and faster than expected. She is comfortable with the routine and getting along well with other horses and people. She is horrified by the “lion” (fluffy barn kitty) and gives major snorty stink eye. She has…

The best part of an Adoption Manager’s job…
The best part of an Adoption Manager’s job… a “thank you for saving her” hug from a little girl who is over the moon for her very first pony. It just doesn’t get much better than that. Congratulations to Stella who took Maggie home with her today! You two have fun…
