4:03 PM, Changes

Changes all around..The picture to the left of Baileyboy was sent to me from what could quite possibly be his new home!
He'll be there for a month long trial to see if he'll fit in with the herd and fit the needs of the people.
It was bittersweet to see him leave but, from watching these folks work with him, I know that they'll understand him and take care of his needs first. I trust that they will take the time it takes for him to become confident and let those defensive walls drop. I can honestly say I feel good about it. So send positive energy our way, friends! Things are looking up.
Since Bailey's gone, we've put the mini-horse out in the pasture with Lady.. Their developing relationship is very... interesting. The mini horse is a very dominant LBE with a huuuge food orientation and he's quite the little character. Lady spends half of her time fighting with him for dominance.
Here's a quick picture for you to kind of show you the size difference.. Lady looks like a giraffe next to him!
Lady didn't take to this transition too well and I'm kind of worried about her. She seems sort of sad and subdued but, hopefully she'll take to the little one better in the coming days.
My horse is my mirror...
I've been quite sick the past three weeks and now I'm on an intense medication regimen to make me better and KEEP me better.. hopefully.
Right now I'm going to focus on getting better and getting enrolled in school.
It's a difficult stage for me but I feel like we could be coming out of a steep learning curve. I'm ready to move on to a place where things flow.
More soon!
Katie.

It's not about disposable horses;
it's about relationships for life.
It's not about quick fixes and artificial aids,
it's about savvy; true understanding and expertise.
It's not about winning and others losing;
It's about win-win: you and the horse need to feel good.
It's not about me me me;
It's about changing the world for horses, becoming a person of knowledge and influence, and sharing what you know.
It's not about fear and doubt;
It's about unconditional love and trust.
Love for the empowerment of others and trust that you'll never ask the horse to do something that would hurt or diminish his dignity.
Reveal your horse. Discover your potential. Live your dream.
