dixie managed the change over beautifully...duh! of course she would...she is a race horse who moved from the island to mainland tracks and back to her fraser valley stable. she was so calm and collected..interested but not hugely stressed...such an amazing horse our dixie!
flicka is here. and let me tell you...from someone who knows diddly squat about horse breeds. she is without a doubt an arabian princess...BEAUTIFUL head and carriage..even for a 31 year old....and even i can recognise royalty when i meet them. she must have been absolutely stunning in her youth and once she gets some weight on her..i am sure she will be again. and with her royal lineage comes a bit of princess like attitude...nicole said she already tried to take a chunk out of pete's head and butt when he dared to walk beneath her royal window.
sigh...we left in her the stall while we went to help dixie settle..now i better get my peasant servant butt out there and do some intro's with the other horses..i think we will wait a bit before we introduce her to cows, goats, sheep, donkey, llama and pigs....i don't think she is going to be too happy to meet them or having them milling around her royal feet.
oh dixie...i might be missing you in many more ways than i even originally thought of!
i tried to upload her photo but after 30 minutes of my stupid computer freezing i gave up. i will try again today.
