Taken’s Chances’ New Mom Checks In!

Jul 12, 2008

My name is Laura Boineau and I have recently purchased Taken Chances from Lea Mueller. He is doing great. Chance has a great personality and attitude. I know that Lea had trouble getting and keeping weight on him, so I have been treating him for ulcers. His appetite is great now and he is easily…

The Dr. Checks In – Dr. Kenny Winn That Is

Jan 6, 2010

Kwinn (Dr. Kenny Winn)has done so well at his new barn. The change to a smaller, quieter barn has done wonders for him. Funny thing is Kwinn will adjust to just about any horse. If they like to play, he’s right there for the fun. If they want to just kick back and relax, he’ll do the same thing. I also think that as more time goes by with him being off the track, we are seeing different aspects of his personality come out. He’s still quite sweet, but he can be a character at times. He’s learned to pull his extra blanket off the rack and toss it across the barn floor.

Love at First Meeting!

Feb 18, 2009

….I didn’t even quite realize who was over in that pasture, until Barry said “now Aly….stays over in this pasture” and I just about exploded in a scream, I don’t think words can describe what happens when you feel the soft muzzle of an Aly BaYboy for the first time, I felt so quiet when I first touched him, I think its because such feelings, just can’t be expressed, that’s all there is to it.

Bato Loco is Crazy for his New Home and Friends

Sep 24, 2008

Loco spent two hours in the pasture this morning. He loved it. He made some friends and did a lot of exploring. He followed me like a puppy. When I walked him to the round pen, he was relaxed: his head was nice and low, he walked at an easy, slow pace just behind my…

Leader Board Scores Complements!

Jan 22, 2009

Thank you so much for Leader Board’s papers and his pictures. I really enjoyed seeing him as a baby! “Leader” is still doing amazing. He really seems to enjoy his new job. He comes running in from the field when I call him, so I guess he doesn’t hate to work. He has gained most…

Snow Days Mean Slow Days for Eleanor’s Groom

Dec 1, 2008

The horse (Eleanor’s Groom) is doing great, gaining weight and figuring out his place in the herd. No new bites for a couple of weeks now! He’s happy. My husband (the equine vet, specializing in dental) did a number on him. He had some caps that needed to be pulled and one weird tooth that…

Farmsick for Bits & Bytes Farm

Mar 8, 2009

I rode Aly again today after breakfast, and lunged and free lunged him first. He did superbly and my mom was extremely impressed with how quickly he obeys the voice cues for w,t,c while lunging especially. I also rode without stirrups for a good 15 minutes or so just to challenge myself and hopefully keep a good seat even though I am coaching myself.
