What a fantastic horse and beautiful soul! He is wonderful.<br />I agree with what you said, about posting the names of his former owners in neon lights for sending him to the auction. <br />I'm so glad he found his way to his mom and you!Laranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2113210295764288330.post-81699143453033610302010-08-15T17:38:18.521-05:002010-08-15T17:38:18.521-05:00Good question PhunnieOne!

I can't imagine what would lead someone to treat a nice horse like him as disposable - but, wait - I don't have to imagine it, I've seen that sort of "the horse is a piece of sports equipment to be thrown away when broken" thinking in lots of different horse disciplines - or perhaps it was just plain "trading up"!<br /><br />Anyway, he's really lucky to have ended up with his mom and now you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2113210295764288330.post-30853944312245425062010-08-13T12:30:15.200-05:002010-08-13T12:30:15.200-05:00What a lovely boy.

I really noticed the difference in his back end, the difference in musculature is amazing! <br /><br />I didn't get a chance to comment on your ground-breaking. Congratulations!
