GreeneAcres

His new home. Greene Acres Equestrian Center. He is soo happy. I will get some pictures of the whole place. My mom and Barbara came up with their dogs, Molly and Meredith, (Molly is deaf and only has one eye, she loves Bass, Meredith, I don't know if she's to sure yet.) (I'll put pictures up of them also.)

So, they came up over the weekend and we walked with Bass over the little bridge to the field. He was so good. I thought for sure he would give me a hard time. I watched him though, as soon as I saw him getting a little nervous I would turn him back toward the barn and let him eat grass. I only had to do that twice and when he was calm he just walked right over.

oh! He is also starting to gain weight. His winter coat is shedding out revealing his shiny summer coat.

All this Natural Horsemanship stuff I've been trying to learn has really helped me. I have made some new friends. Also with working at Dion Tack on the weekends, It has opened up the whole horsey world again. : )

Ambassador's New home

The picture at the top with the title is also his new place.

Moving again

Yes I know what you are thinking, WHY??

Well, he needed more grass. More of just everything. So I found a place where he has beautiful grass, wide open spaces, and I can see him on my way to work and my way home.

Between all this, I had contacted Leslie Miller to help me with Bass and his ground manners. She was great! He was listening to her in no time. Well, she gave my mom and I tickets to Parelli. That was fantastic! We really enjoyed the whole thing. So I had Leslie help me move Bass again. It only took us one hour to get him on the trailer. While we were in the processes we got to talking and come to find out she had worked a short time with Jerome. What a small world.

Got Bass to his new place and he is happy, I am happy and the kids can have fun exploring!

Moving time!

Well it has come time to move Ambassador closer to home. Not just for us, but for him also. I find a farm just down the street. Oh, it will be grand to have him so close. The very beginning of February we decide to move Ambassador. Ok, well little did I know he wanted nothing to do with the horse trailer.

First thing he does is trot over to say hello to the mares. Then it takes both myself and the lady with the trailer to hold onto him, keep him pointed in the trailer. Well, then it comes to our attention that he hasn't eaten yet. Okay lets try bribing him on. With a flake of hay and a scoop of grain we slowly coax him on the trailer.

After three hours, yes three hours we get him on. Yeah! He rode the whole way to his new place very peacefully. When we get there he unloads beautifully.
