I cringed as Jason was recounting this conversation. Jason was a bit surprised by my reaction and didn't understand why I was looking so unhappy about this complimentary conversation. I said to Jason it was tempting fate way too much and that now we were going to go on a streak of seeing the vet.
To be specific we've seen the vet three times since that fateful conversation. Thankfully all of our needs have been manageable things like a cut that needed a couple of stitches, one of the horses choked (on soaked feed no less!!), stuff like that. Hopefully three is the magic number and we can go back to our usual state of not seeing or talking to our vet for weeks and weeks at a time!

I think the reason your horses are (mostly) so healthy is that, in addition to your great care and management, they're living the best life for horses - 24-hour turnout, lots of room to move, in herds and with 24-hour access to high-quality forage and clean water. That's what horses really need - anything else we do is an approximation.
It's funny how superstitious we can be about good fortune with our horses. Regardless of tempting fate - your husband was correct. You can see in the photos of your lovely residents how happy and healthy they are :)
Keep up the good work!
Chance's mom Maggie here- just stopping by to comment and say I cannot wait to come meet both you and Jason and see my boy! It's been a long couple of years, and your excellent care and attention to these horses is the biggest comfort in the world to me. I am so grateful to you both. So looking forward to the weekend :) See you soon!
Maggie
