Genuinely Happy

Oct 6, 2008

I was just checking in and giving you an update on Genuine Draft. We have grown to love this big guy. He is my mom and sister’s barn favorite! He is so sweet and loves people so much!

Fox Hunting Balancing Act

Dec 19, 2011

It was warm and dry so scenting was going to be tough. We started slowly with ample time for Imatexan to settle in before we hit the first line.
