No more empty stalls !!
After losing Tuff, Jim spent his time riding Cndy and schooling her for me.
Then we heard of some yearling stud colts across town, So you know we had to go take a look. Well, Jim fell in love with the little Dun and had to have him.
I think it was one of the longest weeks I have to endure in a long time. All Jim could talk about was this little colt. "What are we going to call him?" and "What color will look best on him?" Was the jist of most of our conversations at home. Finnally the day came when we could go get him and bring him home with us.
That in itself would be a bit of a challenge. We brought his shots with us to give to him, He had his feet done, and the check was written !!!! Now all we had to do was load him up!!! Yeah right, Well other than being handled lightly and halter broke our new little guy sure didn’t understand what the trailer was or how to negotiate it. But with some persuation from the back and some green grass in front of his nose, the 4 of us got him loaded and away we went. I think it was more traumatic for me then for JD.
At the end of the day JD has settled in well and I thought he made a great addition to our yard of colorful horses.
The only glitch was the since he was still a stud, My Cindy filly went nuts over him. OK so NOW I have to endure another long week of squeeling and keeping JD and Cindy seperated untill our Vet can come out and geld him !!!!!
More Coming
Be sure to come back often and see what JD has been up to.

I Can Do This !!!!! | JD is such a good boy. I spent only 15 minutes with him on Trailer Loading. Now he runs to get in. Very different from the baby we pushed into the trailer 4 weeks ago.
