Sunny, thank you for the Sunshine

Holly Update — July 18, 2008

Holly update from her foster mom: Holly is doing good. I have given her my TB gelding as a pasture buddy and that is working out good. At night they are brought into their own paddock and stall. I am in AZ taking care of my daughter, who just had surgery but I get…

Sinatra Update from July 14 2008 and July 17 2008

Marta & Shay update

Marta and Shay continue to thrive under the careful care of their foster mom, Eileen. With their blankets on, it’s hard to tell who is who, they are such peas in a pod! Both mares continue to be easy keepers on restricted diets, but they are getting to enjoy a brief…

Misty at a ‘big girl barn’

An update on Misty from Lisa: Misty enjoyed a trail outing on New Years day, to our usual spot at Rattlesnake Lake/Snoqualmie valley trail. She was very well behaved on the trails, and didn’t balk once! Even though we arrived and parked among other horse trailers and…
