I am so glad Ziggy is happy at the barn and is making friends with Studman, both instantly liking each other.
Ziggy is my favorite.
I wanted to share with your viewers that most horse people just throw a new horse out with the others horses and walks away. They often let the horses figure it out and that can have big consequences. I have to give a huge credit to Our Clever Cowgirl for keeping a watchful eye out for best matched horses. This takes time and patients. I'm positive that Ziggy will have a new place and companion that works best for all. The "Best Horse Mom" award goes to Our Clever Cowgirl!. Well done.
Well said yes indeed
Yes!!!
I concur.
Yes!! Well said!
Absolutely agree, its a joy to watch x
Ziggy and Studman is the ending we didn’t know we wanted 😊
Really makes you love Ziggy. I can relate.
I love your perspective.
I love Studman! Seeing him find a friend and that friend be our dead honest Ziggy is so wonderful!
What a sweet moment seeing those two becoming friends right away.
That mare is a pain in the ass.
Don't be too hard on yourself CC, we appreciate that you show us the humbling situations and lessons learnt. Your horses are so well looked after, you're our number one Cowgirl.
So true. Horses are highly humbling.
You are just the sweetest and most human girl around. You did all you could. Sometimes things just go the way they want to.
And keep caring for all your animas just as you do.
🤍
I have not seen her around cows at all, so I don't think that is a good nickname.
CC didn't have to share this video. She's always trying to help educate other people. She let us observe horse behavior at her own expense and she taught us that we need to separate them when necessary. I think she's very brave 🎖️ to have shown the video in order to help horses and their people.
Thank you for this comment!
100% agree!
🎉
My pleasure!@@peggycarey5057
I know absolutely nothing about horses and I very much enjoy these videos. I am learning a lot.
Due to your care, no one would ever guess what a wreck Skeletor was. He is beautiful now
Stunning; gleaming with health
You can tell by his name that he had to be very skinny. He's a beautiful horse now.😊❤
I think both Skeletor and Ziggy looked much more content in their new situations and swap of location by the end of the video. Skeletor is a beauty but the look on Ziggy face in the small arena - with the wind in his mane and the sun setting - was sheer peace. His trot is amazing. Such spring in that trot. He looks so much happier there. Time will tell but I think it is a good swap. Ziggy is such a peaceful, non confrontational horse.
Ziggy is such a kind soul. Another example that Arabians are not always the flighty, hot headed messes that they are made out to be. The ones I’ve known have such good heads and are so willing for their people.
They r amazing horses.! I live in Egypt.! They r incredibly smart horses.! ❤
I think Arabians age like fine wine. Their flightiness disappears with age, and they become very calm and reliable as they age.
Agree! Lots of very sane and sound purebred Arabians out there, living to very old age. I know, I've had them 😊
I agree. While Arabians seem highly strung they are usually sweet natured and really strong and fast for their size. I think Ziggy is a sweet boy.
I had an Arabian and he was such a stinker. Not mean or ever wanted to hurt any of my other horses. He just delighted in nipping my quarter horse on the bum. Just out of the blue. He really did not bother my paint. She was giant and I think since they were closer in age he decided to pretty much leave her alone. I still loved my Arabian very much.
I feel like Skelator is the perpetual man/child - uh, that would be horse/child - socially inept, unable to read the room and just injured enough to demand all sorts of time and attention from mom. What had started looking like a mistake is now looking like, serendipitously, a great outcome. Skelly gets all the one-on-one attention from his new gal, and Ziggy gets to find peace and companionship with the guys as he was used to. Best wishes to all. Have a great summer! 😂
So well said!! ❤
Skelator is so beautiful! Love to see the horses run together.
😂 yes, bless his big doofus heart! 💖
Agreed! I want to see more of Pete! 😍
Where is your husband? Doe😢s he get involved at all?
Ziggy is such a good boy. He will make a great friend for someone in his life.
Poor old lady. She is going to miss her white knight. Glad nobody got hurt and I am going to enjoy seeing more of Ziggy.
Yup. She chose the silver fox over the flashy young gun.😉😆
Oohhhhh, the drama! Thank you for showing the realities of managing herd dynamics and horsey introductions. Some folks on here need to take a breath and remember that you are not one of those youtubers who only show the fun stuff. Sometimes, no matter how carefully you plan, including so many variables like personalities and available resources, things do not go well. Your understanding of Skelly's personality (he's not a mean horse he, just does not get it) and appropriate intervention kept everybody safe. THANK YOU CC for your honesty re: how you might have planned this differently. Smart, emotionally balanced people can evaluate and learn. Others decide to point fingers and go into know-it-all mode.
I've got to get back to chores -- yall have a great afternoon! ❤
Truth!😊
💯💯💯😊
This! Perfectly said! 💯🙏🫶
Tending to life is not a visit to Disneyland but an expanding dynamic of problem solving. ⾺
Horses are not interchangeable parts on an assembly-line; it takes a key
understanding of experience, knowledge, and a bit of intuition to help solve
problems. In the final appreciation of good horse care it may be an art form.
Glad to see Ziggy move to a better environment and Skelly find some other horse to occupy his time.
Looks like Skelator & his drama Queen will have a beautiful summer.
LOL YES. yes they will. 😂😂
I imagine the two of them whispering sweet nothings to each other and planning mischief.
😂
@@KhaeLikesCoffee You mean screaming sweet nothings to each other and planning chaos? LOL
😂
Ziggy is such a beautiful little horse. He looks like he stepped out of a fairy tale.
Yes. Exactly❤
For me he is the horse Maximus out of the Rapunzel movie
Ziggy needs a real friend. He is a dear little guy.
He might do well with a pony or some other older horse with a similar temperament.
I've always ridden at places where mares and geldings were kept together. I think it's better when the herd is bigger so no horse gets picked on so individually.
Dear little gal
It looks like he has a good one in stud man. And like CC said, some horses actually prefer their own company to that of other horses, especially when they get older.
Don’t worry about Ziggy, CC knows him best and he’s in beautiful hands.
@@dreamcatcher3861
Definitely....She is a pleasure to watch. So knowledgeable about horses and their care and her work ethic is to be admired :)
Still, not the way to do it. Friends can be made in a safer way. Be kind to Animals !!!
It is impossible to get everything right, even when you are a pro. The best thing to come out of this little chapter, is to see Ziggy so happy, with the sun on his pale coat and the wind whipping up his main and tail. Beautiful! And a bonus - he seems to get on well with that horse over the fence. All good.
That’s stud-man, it was beautiful to see them connect.
Studman! He's always been my favorite of CC's horses, but Ziggy became my other favorite pretty quickly lol. It's awesome to see them together.
I love Skelly, but felt so bad for Ziggy, so pleased he looks happy at the barn. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your day, all of your animals are so beautiful and clearly loved. They’re a credit to you .
It's amazing how complicated this whole operation is. Everything from making sure the horses are healthy and get along well with each other to fixing little fencing issues... It's hard to believe that one woman can do it all, and do it all so well.
That’s not a bad day! You prevented your horses hurting each other, found huckleberry after he ran away from you and saved a bird!! All in all, successful avoidance of all the disasters life was trying to throw at you 😂
Love this mindset and totally agree!!!
Huckleberry: "He is pretty lucky that I don't have any actual work for him to do every day, because I don't think his brain could handle it." 🤣
Great comment by CC!
To his credit, he’s smart enough to know agitated horses can cause severe injury to himself or his person. When I was young we had a 3/4 Great Pyr who didn’t understand that til he got stomped, an internal bone chip confirmed by xray, 6 months of limping. I’d rather have a dog that says “this scene isn’t for me” than one who thinks he needs to be right in the thick of a resource guarding (my mare) dominance display. 😏
I feel for Ziggy. He needs his own temperament to buddy up with. Horses are such body sensitive creatures (despite their treatment by some humans), and there are so many benefits to them having a friend to help remove parasites, nuzzle and graze together. Yes, they can be “fine” by themselves, but it’s not ideal. Maybe one of those burros CC admired will be in his future. 😊
Awe, that’s not a nice thing to say about a sweet huckster!
🤣🤣🤣
Ziggy reminds me of the flea-bitten old mare that I had that lived to 35 years old. She was so calm and loved everyone and was so gentle to the foster kids I use to have on weekends. ❤️
Ziggy reminds me of every senior Arabian horse I've ever known. Lol
Yup had a nice mare that was a divorce situation ...how sad. She proved to be a great kids horse.
You were right about Ziggy’s character; he definitely has a calmer energy and probably would have been a calming influence on skeletor had it not been for the mare’s presence
Yes, it might well have worked out, had it not been for the wild card of the mare.
Yes possibly but it seem to go very well in the end with Studman and Ziggy, like old friends.
This is what I thought exactly. So frustrating that the mare was there to spoil it. I would love to have seen what happened without her.
To the haters...grow up. This is real life. Horses are not always predictable and you can not always keep them safe.
Well said!
No kidding! I was just going to post something like, everyone makes mistakes! Quit making nasty comments unless you are a perfect human.
💯 agree!!
Anyone hating is a certified dummy😂 everyone’s an expert on CZcams lol
You can keep them safe. By not doing this very dangerous act ! I am not a hater of her, I watch her videos all the time. And I can bet by your comment you know nothing about horses !
Love Ziggy's sigh of relief at being in a no drama zone.
The drama is stressful to watch. Hormones! I'm with Huckleberry.
Same here! 💖
🤣🤣🤣
I find drama everywhere and I am always looking for good examples of
how to solve some of its problems. I found this video encouraging. 💚
I found it quite triggering, my horse was like the Zigster (low hierarchy but totally fine with that never starting any fight and go immediately away if someone tried to intimidate him) and got kicked to trash from dudes like Skeletor that were additionally aggressively minded because they were also low hierarchy but unlike my horse couldn't get over it. It's sometimes horses that had an atypical upbringing, like being brought up with cows without any other horse. It's extremely annoying when their owners don't wanna see the shortcomings of their horse and their behaviour and just laugh it away. Because theirs is not the one getting harassed and physically harmed, being cornered and never given a way to run away (every time i saw Ziggy in his shelter I was in fear he would end up cornered in there and beaten to shits). I was so happy when he was finally out there and to see him over at the stables being calm.
(Oh god, I had so many spelling errors, that really left a mark on me, my horse had to be put to rest because of such an attack, he was cornered and fell backwards and landed on his shoulder, and the people that knew what had happened tried to blame him and didn't tell the truth, it all came out later, he was the best soul and didn't deserve that).
Ziggy and Skeletor would've probably got along fine enough (whilst still not being a match made in heaven) if it wasn't for that squeaky and runny mare. But in the end it's better now.
@@MsSonali1980
As someone who is autistic in a similar way as is Temple Grandin
it is more than horses that can fall victim to a dis-eased hierarchy.
What had happened to your horse is a tragedy but not unique; we
all could do better for one another.
Personality dynamics are hard to predict I’d say. Looks like the day ended with everyone happy, that’s good!
Wow. Only thing missing from the report is the odor of the horses themselves.
Every one of them each so improved. Happy and relaxed, inquisitive gazes - coats and muscle condition improved.
Healthy appetites and teeth and feet - all health issues addressed. Miraculous.
They look so gorgeous in the thumb nail…. Even if they’re pissed off 😂
I'm sorry you had such a stressful day---but thank you for sharing your real life adventures with us! I think I'll be thinking of The Mare as "Hot Pants"....or maybe Miss Floozy.
Skeletor looks absolutely fabulous - so shiny, and filled out so healthily. And beautiful when he trots, or rather, prances. Just lovely. He will have his Summer of love.
I appreciate how objective you are and open to change. It's refreshing to see a low ego horse person. 😊 your animals seem happy after today's adventures.
This was an extremely important episode!! You did an excellent job CC!! It was great to see ziggy go to the barn it actually made me tear up I could almost instantly see the happiness in his little eyes!! ❤️❤️
Charming, all the backseat drivers and arm chair quarterbacks. Hindsight is always 20/20. Until two or more horses have been together, nobody knows how they will get along, any more than you can guarantee how 2 random kids, dogs or adults will react. They had a chance, it didn't work out, so they are separated. Nuff said.
Nailed it! 😊
Yes!
Exactly! So well said!
Anyone who has been on a blind date knows, it's not a perfect match very often.🐎
Exactly! You can plan but really can't tell until you try it.
Good try, and a good solution in the end for Skeletor and Ziggy. The mare is a variable that is out of your control. So glad you noticed the bird in the bucket!
I had an Arabian gelding that looked just like Ziggy & he had a similar personality. Poor Ziggy. I miss my Arabian. Thank you for sharing Ziggy’s story!
That was a very interesting and educational interaction. It looks like Skeletor will remain an introvert that doesn't get herd dynamics and Ziggy will expertly blend in with the rest of the cow ponies. I'm happy for Ziggy.
It will be, to me personally, most interesting just how well Skeletor takes to some discipline, training and work once he is fully fit. He looks to be in fabulous condition currently but it sounds as though you expect the healing process with that rear leg to take a long time yet (months?).
I dunno, Skelly doesn’t seem like an introvert to me. He’s a bit of a drama queen. I wonder if the same thing would have happened if the intro had happened without the mare?
Just FYI, an extrovert can also be very inept to social dynamics. Skel would be the extrovert and always up to something and harrassing others and Zig is more the introvert here, keeping away from trouble and stressful people (mare, Skeletor).
Ziggy seems like such a sweet older gentleman of a horse. I will be sad to see him move on when the time comes for you to find him his forever home. Thanks for all you do for these horses especially the older ones.
Sweet Ziggy. I’m glad he’s happy now in his new area. ❤
Skelator is looking fabulous
I enjoyed this so much. Thanks for letting us come along with you to watch those two interact. You made the right decision taking Ziggy to the barn. He looks very happy. Skeletor seems happy with the mare so all is well. 💙
When Skeletor acts crazy that's when you can really see how gorgeous he is.
Poor Ziggy. I wonder if he thought you were going to haul him back to the auction when you put him on the trailer? Well, he found out soon enough that you were bringing him to a place he would feel happier. I think everything has turned out for the best!
OMG the drama! A love triangle 😂 The mare in love with Ziggy who didn’t like her back and jealous Skeletor kicking off….and then the poor dog after all the drama decides he doesn’t want to see a horse again and leaves home. Very bravely and brilliantly handled. Super clever cowgirl 👍✨
Skeletor is gorgeous.! But Ziggy is in my heart.! He can be a beauty when he gets in a better condition.! I would love to have a horse like him.! He is perfect for older people.! ❤😊
Or kids...
What an education, to see the difference in character was amazing for me. So happy Studman has an opportunity to bond with Ziggy fingers crossed.
Thanks for showing this to us. Even though it didn’t work out the way you thought it would, it still worked. Ziggy seems to have a new friend and is a good place for himself. I have a soft spot in my heart for Arabians. What a dramatic day and I’m glad everyone is okay. Even the little bird.
I'm so glad to see Ziggy calmer in the arena.
Awe, seeing Ziggy at the barn 🙌🏻 He was so happy, I agree he needed a calmer energy… girls can be a lot of work buddy, I get it! 😂
Why am I crying? Seeing Ziggy being accepted & happy...tears streaming down my face. Thank you CC!❤ This is SOOOO beautiful! His energy is relaxed!🤗❤👍🏽🐴🐎 Beautiful, sensitive soul.
Me too! At 30:00 when he rolled I wept in sympathetic relief.
I think Ziggy just became my retirement mascot - no more office politics for me, I'm just rolling around and being at peace!
@@retyroni And I am crying for your peace and freedoms whilst watching you rolling
❤❤❤ I cried too! That precious Ziggy. I’m so glad she shared this video with us.
You did a great job with the three of them. Sometimes we just have to try things. Sometimes those things don’t work and we recognize it and move on. The horses are looking beautiful! Ziggy is sweet ❤
Poor Ziggy, what a nightmare, he didn't even want the mare! So glad everyone is OK, and Huckleberry made it back home safe and sound. Clever Cowgirl take care of yourself, please. A nice warm bubble bath and a big glass of wine or maybe whiskey. You deserve it! 🍷🥃🛀
Skeletor seems content there as does Ziggy with where you put him. Looks like Ziggy and Studman may become good buds.
Ziggy looks really happy in the new place & he already seems to have found a friend.!
Skeletor also seems to be ok in the new place.! ❤
That was good to see this process, things dont always go to plan but there is always a way!
I really admire your relationships with your animals and how you share your experiences, observations, and skills. Thank you!
Skelator looks in great condition. That was certain his mare and he wasn't sharing! Ziggy is gorgeous and looked much happier at the barn. 😊
Lesson learned. Don't beat yourself up. I'm thrilled to see Ziggy. 😊
I appreciate the humble and honest nature of your videos.
Bumps with the horses introductions, hearing the disappointment and frustration in your voice, and then getting to celebrate along side you with Skelly, Ziggy, Studman and the neighbor’s mare.
If it was all easy we would all be doing it!
Thank you for keeping things real. There is so much educational value in your channel. I’m certain you are helping others.
And wholly cow! I didn’t have any idea that mares cycle every 21-22 days during breeding season. Early spring to late fall. All those hormones!
I’m so glad everyone finished the day safely.
Over the years I've had mares that were in heat throughout the year. One mare was a royal pain, teasing anything and everything. She got a shetland pony gelding to try and mount her. Thankfully, I was there at the time and separated them quickly.
Had another one that was so quiet when she was in heat it was hard to get her bred. I finally figured out that she would pee just before my giving everybody their breakfast. Depending on how much and how she did it was pretty clear that she was in heat.
Phew! After watching you for 5mins. I feel like I’ve had a workout.
Yes....I would barely be able to breath with all the stress!! And she was all alone doing this. That takes guts and courage.
That was so interesting, Skeletor is definitely looking gorgeous. Ziggy was a bit sad and mad til he got to go to the arena, peace at last.The mare definitely complicated things. Thank you!
Skelator is very handsome! I’ve always noticed his beautiful eyes, but he’s really filling out and looking healthy 💜
Oh I noticed how pretty his eyes are too!
I blame the Mare! Skelly wanted the mare and the mare wanted Ziggy and Ziggy didn’t want either. Skelly looked glorious 🌟but my heart was with Ziggy. ❤️ Such a fascinating video.👏🏼
@Sussanah26,
NOT "the" mare.
"That" mare!
😉
The mare isn’t responsible for Skelly’s behavior. I thought we were past blaming women for men’s actions. Lol
@@ivyrose779
Jesus!
Who is a WOMAN?!?
QUIT anthropomorphizing animals, for YOUR own "needs"!!!
@@ivyrose779
Where are "women" in this video?
QUIT anthropomorphizing animals.
Well, CC, you can't save the world! You are doing exactly what you were meant to accomplish today. Glad all has calmed down... Plus, you learned something new today. 👍😉💕
You never stop to amaze me! You are a true inspiration to all Horse lovers!
Again I wish there were more people like you, a true Animal lover,and saving those who need your tender loving care!❤
such a lovely ending to a stressful day. You really have to be a horsey person to juggle all those demands, it isn't as easy as I thought. Well done you, you have to try new things and sometimes they don't work out as expected. xx
What a suspense-filled day, thank you for taking us on this adventure! 🤗
The mare and her hormones certainly added an unexpected zing to the introduction, which may or may not have gone differently without her. Who knows? Certainly not the people who write know-it-all and rude comments, so please try to ignore them, although that is always easier to say than to do.
To me it seems that, although the introduction didn't go as expected, two perfect matches were made at the end of the day: Ziggy and Skelly are happy in their new environment, the mare can be with a loverboy who is really interested in her, and Studman has a new friend who isn't such a big goofball. It's a definite win! ❤❤ ❤❤ 😊👍
Plus, you even managed to save a bird from drowning, which is an achievement on its own 😊.
Lots of love from Switzerland to you and your horses, and a special hug for Huckleberry and Tiny 🌞❤
Ziggy with Studman seems to be a better match! I love seeing both of them peaceful near each other. Skelator has his mare, and I think in that quiet space, he'll thrive.
Aww so glad to see everyone calm. I am really happy Ziggy seems to enjoy Studmans company. The mare is a perfect companion for Skelly for the summer he is not alone and he can heal and enjoy her company. ❤ you don’t know until you try to see how things work out so don’t be hard on yourself 😊 I always enjoy watching your videos and seeing the care you put into your herd.
Thanks for sharing with us as you are learning what will work best for all of the horses. I know you are being careful, patient and are very knowledgeable. You have done so much to help each of your horses and to give them the best life possible. ❤
Doesn’t matter if it’s horses, chickens, cats, dogs, or any critter, there is going to be some disruption and they have to work it out. You monitored it beautifully. Much respect for not only doing what is best for the horses but also for being brave and sharing it. Like it or not, this is normal.
No one can perfectly predict what two animals are going to do when they first meet! You gave them a good chance, then found an even better solution. You are a smart cookie, girl! This could be heavenly serendipity! 😉😊🐎🐎
Poor Ziggy 😮 glad he's happier where you put him. Skeletor looks very happy with his mare also.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching your day unfold with Ziggy and Skeletor, along with Huckleberry, Tiny and Stud Man. I even enjoyed warching the mare and have grown attached to her, as well. Its obvious you put a lot of thought in your filming/editing. The final few minutes allowed all of your viewers a relaxing view if your hard work. Thank you! ❤
Not to bad, if the mare hadn't been there it might have worked. You never know till you try it. Skeletor is a teenager and teens can be little brats LOL. Glad Ziggy settled in and doesn't care about that old mare. 🙂
Thankyou , what a stressfull bit of time . I saw Ziggy poor guy shutting down .very sweet horse .
Hope it all work out for you .
Thankyou for sharing and hope huckleberry is recovering.
Take care .you did your best . Cant read the horses mind all of the time .
All's well that ends well. You could not have predictéd this dynamic. You've done a great effort
I am continually impressed with your philosophy with your horses. You are patient and kind and concerned for everyone’s wellbeing. I think Ziggy was destined to be at the barn and Skellie back over by your house. Everything worked out better than the initial plan! Yay! No one was hurt, including you and Huckleberry. It will be fun to see how the summer plays out. Excelljob CC!❤
Skelly and the mare suit each other - drama queens! Skelly definitely lacks social skills, at least he wasn't too aggressive.
I am looking forward to Ziggy and Studman's friendship! Poor sensitive Huckleberry, a little dog with giants getting angry around me, I'd run away too! Lucky you have great neighbours he can trust!
Hindsight is 20/20 as the old saying goes. There is no one that can predict how these things are going to go with 100% accuracy. Both of these horses have been through traumatizing experiences which adds to their unpredictability. I think you have been nothing but amazing bringing them as far as you have. No one and i mean NO ONE could have done better.
I absolutely agree Beth. Well said. 🫶🏻
Skeletor's hooves was a crash course description of how much horses adjust as they grow and why trimming feet should be part of the process all the way.
Dont beat yourself up, you tried this but it didnt work out, sometimes what seems to make sense on paper doesn’t work out in real life. No one (horse/doggy) was hurt….Doggo took himself off somewhere safe, and Ziggy looked relaxed having a roll around. Hope you manage to relax and de stress somehow.
The drama in the quarantine pen reminded me of 14 year olds in middle school. I'm glad Ziggy is in a better place, and Skeletor seems happy as well. The mare is a diva.
😂😂😂 I taught middle school and can confirm! 😂
This story unfolding for your viewers is like a personal journal or diary - good and bad (It's not a tik-tok, folks!). I'm enjoying it very much - pleasure to live this life vicariously, and tremendously informative. Thanks, CC
Maybe if the mare wasn't there roaming free and in heat... it might of work. It Looks like everything is going to work out. Lol, I too was getting stress, poor huckaberry. GM
Poor Ziggy. He’s like. Hey I’m not doing nuthin 😕. That mare is a drama mama. We hang a piece of hog fencing leaning inside the troughs so small animals can escape. Glad Ziggy could relax and feel safe
I used pieces of 2x6 lumber scraps.
You have definitely shown the importance of trying to match horses. A lesson for everyone! Thank you!
Happy for Ziggy. He's such a sweet boy. So many people have the belief that Arabs are crazy, but they are not. They are the most people loving horses I have ever had.
I believe that wisdom is, in part, the ability to recognize one’s miscalculations, calmly analyze them and then trying an alternative approach. This is what you did, CC, and I applaud you for it. You clearly explained your reasons step by step.
Thanks for being you.
Thanks CC! Glad it all worked out, just differently than you expected. Ziggy did look happy in his new surroundings.
I so admire how much time you took to watch the intro. And how carefully you evaluate the 100's of variables in horse interactions. This is how to do it right! And good on you CC .
👍
So sweet Ziggy and Studman
You handled the situation perfectly CC. Horses are unpredictable and often things don't go as planned. We have a friend's horse at our place as of yesterday. She's still separated from mine but there have been a few stressful moments. Poor Huckleberry! Ziggy and Skeletor are looking great! 🐎🥕❤️
It always warms my heart to see you care so so much for the emotional well-being of your horses as well as the physical. Just please don't stress yourself too much ❤
You do your best for your horses, and look out for what they need. It was a reasonable idea, it just didn't work-can't know ahead of time! I'm glad that the swap seems to be good for both of them. Looking forward to seeing more!
That was wildly interesting. Pheromones flying
You are doing an outstanding job with patience, kindness and hope! I love what you do for your horsie family ❤
Clever Cowgirl you did so well through such an eventful day!
So much thought & prep went into the plan but there would always be unknowns & things out of your control- like that mare!
We can only plan so much and then have to see how things play out in reality. The real strength- which you showed in spades- is adapting plans to work with the real conditions... being open to change. You're a Champion!🏆🎉💖
Wow, this is real horse opera. Ziggy ❤ such a love. He seems really glad he's away from the stresses of the mareish neighbor.
Wonderful job of showing the dynamics and unexpected drama of such beautiful animals. Thanks CC for allowing us into the daily grind of your world with these awesome horses 🐎 ❤❤❤❤
