Ok...I do not have much information at the moment to share...but I am too excited to not share the little bit that I have.....
Some of you know that I work with disturbed horses, as a 'whisperer' of sorts. I have one that has graduated from my care and is leaving today (JR). I was supposed to be getting 2 Tennessee Walkers in his place. Cool, as I have always wanted to work with them since I was a little girl.
I got a voice message this morning telling me that JR is going home today and instead of getting the 2 walkers, I am getting a mare who is due to have a baby any day. The owner wants the baby to grow up to be the calmest, gentlest horse on the face of the earth.... This means I get to love and touch and play with and teach a little one from the moment of birth till about the age of 2!
The hard part is going to be the handing it back over to the owner.
So...when I get home tonight, I will post what breed she is and what breed the daddy is. And then pics the moment that things happen!!!!! |

Exactly like that. I have studied his books and worked with others that do the same thing. It is very rewarding.
