Woofta!! What a busy month!! We topped it off today with our annual Westfalen inspection. All of our foals had stellar scores, great comments, and have a bright future ahead of them. We were so excited to have Bo's mom, Jen, here to be a part of the big day, and shortly after inspection, sweet Bo started his trip to Connecticut ❤️.
The reason for this post, though, is for appreciation. These two have picked up every ounce of slack and then some since having Charlie. Between keeping the barn tidy, tacking/untacking horses, doing odds and ends requests, and even an extra hand to hold Charlie while I ride, these two also maintain their own lives, school, jobs, and their own horses. Without a single complaint or negative look, they show up at any hour of the day to bathe, braid, dry off foals, get a horse ready, watch mare cams, or anything I never even have to ask them to do, because they know me well enough to know what I need before I even open my mouth.
As much as I selfishly hope I get to keep them both in my barn forever, if the day comes that they have to move on to bigger and better, I'll be the first one standing behind their resume. They'll be an asset at any barn they walk into.
