In loving Memory of our first home bred pure gypsy cob Pepperwood Indianna aka “Indie Pop”
• I remember the moment you were conceived, your dam Blossom could not travel so my husband quickly built a homemade crush in our shed and our amazing AI vet travelled all the way from Donnybrook to inseminate her with frozen semen from your sire at 2am in the morning….then the long-awaited scan 18 days later and you were there on the screen! I loved you from that very instant.
• I remember the moment you were born, your Dam gave birth standing up and I remember panicking as you unceremoniously landed on the ground, and we rushed over to check on you…you were perfect.
• I remember when you escaped from your paddock and your dam was frantically calling over the fence almost crashing through it until I bundled you back in with her and my husband kindly drove 800 kilometres to purchase equine safe mesh (on Xmas eve) and spent Christmas day refencing your paddock.
• I remember your antics with your best buddies Donatella, Georgie and Isabella, who all still miss you.
• I remember your first beautiful foal Belladonna, what a dam you were!
• I remember watching your movement and thinking you were one of the best moving mares I had seen
• I remember after 6 wonderful years with you, having to wave goodbye as you went to another home and it broke my heart watching you go.
I will remember you always sweet girl. RIP, Indie may we meet again.
Thank you to Naomi for keeping me up to date with Indianna’s accident, injury and treatment when no one else did. We appreciate all that you have done for her in the short time you had her, and feel for your loss as well.
