food

I sat with her at mealtimes. Terry and I were with her and she lay down while Terry was in with her. She just seems so comfortable. She has been eating ever since she arrived. She does not gorge just eats contently for an hour or so every few hours. A perfect example of grazing. She prefers alfalfa hay over any of the others do far. Zuza tried to give her apples and cookies. My dog Lucky enjoyed the cookies very much ☺ She doesn’t have a taste for treats at this point.

Violet



“she’s got a keen eye but I reckon if you get her coming to ya,
she’d ride through hell for ya”

sage words from Tom, the cowboy who hauled her to our ranch

1pm. She arrives all skinny and dehydrated. But cute. Settles in very easily. You can tell quickly that she is very confident. We spend most of the day just sitting and watching her and talking about horses. We are so wishing we could scratch her itches, clean her up and put fly spray on her and trim those hooves!!!!
