A Beautiful Monday!

The weather was perfect today, actually cool this morning. All of the horses are enjoying the cooler temps and feeling frisky.

We have started working with Peace Pipe. Elisa and Leo worked him today and Leo hopped on for the first time in the round pen. Since we don't know PP's history, we started from scratch with him. He has most likely been backed before but is still very green. He had good manners with Leo on him and we will continue to work with him for adoption to a new home. He's really a neat little guy! I will be posting a video of him under saddle as well.

Leo "testing the waters"...

So far, so good!

Over in the Barn, Aztec visited with Sunny...

While Sky ate his morning feed. He is slowly putting on weight and feeling better...

Sally groomed little Throttur, the 35 year old Icey. He has been a bit depressed since his arrival, so we moved him out of the barn and into a medical unit right by City Center. This way he is right in the middle of the daily action. He perked right up and seemed much happier! We also suspect he has vision problems, he has a hard time with shadows, so he was a bit afraid of the indoor barn stall...

Trigger over by Easy Street...

Mojo helped with Hawkeye's treatment...

Then helped Helga bathe Hutch.

Gummie member Gomez. While he is still thin, he has gained some weight since his arrival...

Other Gummie members, Melvyn, Orlando and Vic...
