Today was a close call (but in a good way) I came very close to buying a horse but my inner voice won over and I've let it go....for now. We were up working at the cattle company again. These horses tend to be a bit more of a challenge then the guys and gals we usually work on. To make matters worse it was branding day at the ranch so the sound of many many moo's was echoing through the arena.
The first horse I worked on was "Coco". She is a gorgeous 2 year old bay mare that has an Icelantic look to her. Sorry no pictures, I've taken to leaving my camera at home since Heidi has become a professional photographer....anyways back to my story. Coco and I connected in a big way, she was very playful and we spent the last portion of the massage just playing around and getting to know one another. Sara (or Frau Stenson) as she is affectionally known, thought I should be taking this horse home with me.....and she refused to let it go for the duration of the day. Many in the class were looking up the horses they had worked on in the owner manuals and we got prices. So I got the price of Coco just to keep in the back of my head. Unfortunately now the wheels are turning.
Again I'd like to point out that I welcome all donations or gift offerings of any kind. You may now send them to the "Save Coco Fund" c/o Jessica in Loveland.

Come on...buy the horse...You'll be Abby's fav aunty for sure :)
I know the love of horses...it's gotten me into more trouble than I can ever tell...LOL! Thank goodness I fell in love with a human (Ron)...I didn't have to tell you that, did I? hehehehe! Camulet Alden was my 17 hand, standard sulky racer. I loved him very much. A lot of work. A lot of money. A lot of time...but the love was sweet. Remember that Colorado is a long ways from Ontario. Getting your horse across the border will be fun. Hugs, Jen
Ah, come on! I'm sure the horse will fit in the Tiburon. LOL :)
