Apr 19, 2008

Just getting back to you with some pictures. As I was saying, Dox is a very sweet boy and is really responding to the love and attention he’s getting. I have a trainer helping me who has rehabilitated two Thoroughbreds of her own. Dox is willing, very smart and surprisingly calm for a four y/o…

Feb 17, 2009

I just got back from Florida with the horses. Lover’s Quarrel (aka “Dante”) was awesome down there. The Ocala Winter II Horse Trials was his first event ever.

I said, “THERE YOU ARE!” He looked at me, spun around and ran back up to the door of the barn (that leads to the pasture he was in ) and waited for me! Now how smart is that? He saw me walk by and came to tell me to come and get him! That just made my day, no my week, no my month!

Adventures of the “Mighty Kwinn”

Nov 19, 2008

Thought I would quickly update you on Kwinn and his adventures! The good news is that the famotidine appears to be working. Everyone agrees that Kwinn appears to be filling out and generally looking better. His new supplement (probiotic with antacid properties) arrived and he’s been started on that too. YEAH!!! But, my guy does…
