I dont like the sound of that at all!
It wasn't the way you're supposed to do things, that's for sure... She's going to be big enough, I guess... but I know it stunted the momma's growth to be pregnant and nursing while she was still trying to grow up. Tiff had a hard time keeping weight on her.
I would be concerned that it would affect the Mommas bone structure, arent they still growing at that age? I hope that she is ok. Sounds like the owners were irresponsible. I am still new to horses but everyone knows what animals will do as soon as they reach the age, given half the chance!
What a lovely photo!
Is Tiff going to keep Sweetie?
I've just been waiting on Sarah Lee . She'll be back Sat. I really miss them . Too much, maybe:')
So you're bringing SL back? Boarding at the same place? Was it just too hard to have them that far away?
I'm headed to bed in a few minutes... I hope you're gonna be around to chat tomorrow.
She thinks she will! ~shrugs~ :~D
I'll have to ask my husband, I'm not sure what he pays for all that. I tell you what, though, it's worth it, the fire ants around here are unbelievable. The mounds can get knee high and if you don't put the stuff out in the spring, the pastures are covered with them.
Yes, I'm near DFW and I also have wimpy ass southern blood. :)
Good morning.
Becky
Morning Becky. Don't know if I'm going to ride today because it's supposed to be in the 90s. It's nice and cool this morning, but I'm stuck in the office.
I'm getting ready right now to head out to ride Rusty. I'm kinda hanging around that lady wants to look at Rusty again, but I'm not sure if she is coming or not. She was suppose to call last night and never did. I'm not waiting long, because it's suppose to be int he 100's again today here.
Becky
Have a good ride, if you're already gone....
And hope the lady comes around for Rusty!
Gonna be in the 90s even here.... it's hot everywhere.
Rusty is saddled, the lady is a no show. I'm almost glad:). I mean, I wouldn't have a problem selling her Rusty, she takes very good care of her animals, but I'm a bit worried that she is going to be a high maintenence person, know what I mean. LOL....seems to be alot of them around.
She has called every day and she just wants to sit and chat about this other friend of her's who she thinks is trying to screw her on a horse deal. One I don't like to sit and chat on the phone. If I have to talk to someone, that's about the only time I call, then I say what I have to and hang up. Maybe I'm that way because I do all my chatting here:) And Two, I don't know this other lady, I don't care to hear about problems, my horse riding is my time to enjoy. And three I have a big problem being sympathetic to people who are my age and LET someone screw them and say nothing except to bitch to other people about it. And she talks about this other friend as her "BEST" friend....by my age, you know, that just shouldn't be a factor.
Anyway, I've gotten pretty blunt with her over the phone a few times, and she doesn't seem to catch on that I'm really not interested in all her sorrows....LOL...it's almost amusing, except it's a pain. LOL.
Well, I'm out of here, I won't bore you all with the details:)
Becky
LOL - I know what you mean... But you may be stuck with her whether she buys the horse or not! :~D
I've just been to feed the horses, and this morning, when I brought him in the yard, Bay didn't want to eat with the new horse out of sight... He's claimed her as his own.... at least someone likes her, the mares are still bein' b*tchy. He ran to greet her when I put him back in... (through the fence of course)
Now Bay will probably make a big production about her going home tomorrow :~D
You'll be stealing a member of his harem! How dare you! ;o)
Mornin'.
Poor Bay! So many mini-dramas!
If I ever get to move up there, maybe I can convince Tiff to sell Sweetie to me. Or even a lease, maybe. :-D
Sweetie's not the right one for ya.... she's a yearling... When you go looking for someone, we'll be looking for somone older and wiser for you. :~D
hehehehe...
By the time I get there, she'll prolly be 10!
Ah - well, then she'll be ready :~D
