Meet my new filly! Look, she's bay!
I had the yen for a new prospect, but I learned that I have champagne taste and a Pabst budget, so I decided to just go ahead and go equine dumpster diving instead.
So this is Hope. I pulled her out of the slaughter pens. She is 2yo, a registered QH, and actually pretty well-bred to work cattle.
She was also little, skinny and missing half her hair. She was also completely untouched and wild as a march hare. Just what everyone wants in a prospect, right?
So, it has been.....interesting.....at first, but she has settled in now, is eating enough for an elephant, so is filling in nicely, and is actually turning out to be much cuter than I expected when I first got her
She's starting to like us humans, and is learning many things about being a civilized, domesticated pony. Anyway, we are just playing around with stuff, and I sure am having fun having a baby horse again. Plus, when she is just loose, she moves like a cutting horse, and I can't WAIT to see what she does with a cow
Although you know that dressage is in her future, too. So give me a seat and pass me a margarita, folks, and let's get this party bus rolling!!!
