See All These Horses.......

And Those--Every Last One of Them-- Dewormed!!!!!

Yahoo! Nineteen horses dewormed. It took all morning and more than a few--especially the babies, did not want to be caught and have that stuff shot down their throats. Matt had to rig up a squeeze chute to accomodate those difficult ones.

But it's over and in thirty days, we get to do it again!

What a good man Matt is to take care of them!

Yes, I too am good!

Yes, even the babies!

The four new babies even had to have half a dose.

Nanceets

Probably not the tastiest stuff!

Proof that she can be caught and yes, even stand still long enough to have her hooves trimmed.

Not Your Standard Pedicure

Since he had her caught, Matt decided to take care of her hooves which had grown long and uneven.

The Wild Paint

Now doesn't she look so gentle? Matt too!

Open, Open, Open.

Fuego-one nice horse that didn't give Matt grief!

Sarah Plain and Tall

Here we have a new horse. No, we didn't need one. However, she was offered and Matt wanted her. She's a standard bred horse and although she doesn't have the big, round butt that Matt adores on a horse, he loves to watch her gait. She holds her tail up as she runs and it's quite enjoyable to see.

Why the long face?

She doesn't have a name yet--except the one she came with--Peaches. That is her default name. We sometimes call her Flacka (that may be misspelled) which means skinny in Espanol or Bonua (which may also be misspelled.) It means tapeworm in Tongan. "Whatshername" has a sweet disposition. She is so tall---well compared to our Mustangs, she is tall and as is indicated by her names, quite slim. She hasn't found her place in the herd yet. We've had her three weeks and the others are still chasing her away. Wally and Tachamp were way down in the pecking order and they've found their places. It is only a matter of time and this little Missy will also be accepted.
