Deeds Update from Jan 23 2008
Deeds update from Lucy: I’m sorry to hear about Deeds’ colic episode! I saw him today and he looked good. I think the pelleted bedding is helping a bit because there was less sand in his stall. He was really perky and excited to be getting out of his stall and move…
Deeds Update from Jan 21 2008
Mr Deeds had a slight bout of colic over the weekend. He became upset when the mare from the next paddock was taken out for turnout, and he worked himself up into a bit of a lather.…started rolling and groaning and not eating his breakfast. The barn owner where he…

Deeds Update from Dec 31 2007
I worked with Deeds again over the weekend, and he was pretty stiff. Probably due to the cold weather we have been having. He was pretty lazy on the lunge and under saddle, and due to his stiffness, I just did walk/trot circles and serpentines with him. He still…

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…

Sweet Smellin’ Ginger!
What Arabian girl doesn’t love her hair products and pampering? Well until this matted tail little mare had met me, I’m not sure how she survived without spa treatments and pampering! As you may know from earlier reports, while Ginger’s previous owner allowed her to…
The Constant Gentleman: Portland
If you have yet to meet this amazing gelding, I wanted to give you just a little taste of what it’s like to know this special horse. I lovingly call him my “boyfriend” because he embodies a strong, caring gentleman who would undoubtedly take long walks on the beach…
