After 17 years Joy has gotten her wish. Its taken a few weeks to do but have finally managed to build her the new stable in the barn. Still need to source and install the rubber stable matting to put over the drainage channels and limestone floor before we will be able use it.

A wonderful xmas surprise from the mare cookie that we lease from Little River Equestrian. A filly 2 weeks early again with no indications given of the imminent birth. Seems to be her way. Last of our foals to her before sending her back in foal to Katana. She is a delightful mare to have around and we will be sad to see her go when the time comes. Thank you Katana and Little River for making this possible.

Had a lovely time with our eldest grandson Mason at the weekend. On Saturday painted some more fencing and ourselves as well. Sunday he went for a short horse ride down the lane ways on Tennessee
who is now 29 and then took the dogs on a walk around the Tana Umaga trail in town before heading home

Update on Takoda.. Have had the wee boy home for a couple of weeks now. He is progressing along nicely. His latest poo sample has come back negative for Salmonella but his blood work results still shows he has a major infection going on. We have changed the antibiotics to hopefully get it under control so is now having to have 20 tablets 2 times a day crushed with small amount of water. Although he still has a way to go he is such a stoic foal and accepts all his treatments without a fuss. As he had to be restricted to a small area while he recuperated after being sent home from Massey he has now reached a stage where he can stretch his legs. As the following video show he does so with great enthusiasm

Hi all, our little Takoda has unfortunately fallen ill and has required some extensive veterinary care at the Massey University Veterinary Hospital ICU, it would be amazing if you could help us in any way big or small, every little bit helps towards covering the costs of his vet care.

End of a successful season. Class of 2021

Last foal of the season. A stunning Arab filly out of Savionne ERA and Paragon A'Idah. So thoughtful of mum to wait until the bad weather to pass.

Welcome to our second foal for the season. Palamino c**t out of Savionne ERA and Byzance Fizzy Gold. Early start to the day. Quick birth. Foaling alarm activated and foal born by the time we got out to her. Fizz retained placenta but as usual popped out as the vet was walking across the paddock. Both had a thorough check and all ok.

Please welcome Takoda, our first foal of the season born 6th Jan 2022 Out of Savionne ERA and our leased mare Cookie. First time mum proving to be an exceptional mother to an already independent, confident c**t. More pics in comments.
