“She’s one of the best natured horses I have ever owned.”

We were really pleased to get this update from Mary on how Shotzie is settling into her new home. Shotzie was without a companion at her previous home, so how great is it that she now has a new horsey best friend?

“She’s working out fabulously. I’m easing her into life slowly here, but she is already BFFs with our gelding. I think they both were looking for connection. 🙂 Phew!

She’s a sweet girl and I can’t wait to start working with her more and to start trail riding.  » Read more about: “She’s one of the best natured horses I have ever owned.”  »

Ruby has been ridden in the arena and on the trail. She really seems to enjoy being out on the trail and will lead or follow. Ruby is a big mare (standing approximately 16.3hh) and is a really pretty mover.
