ADOPTED! And just like that, these two big babies are in their forever home! Because of my injuries (I'll do an update on that soon) I haven't been able to trim Billy for his fortnightly hoof rehab myself (Dr Kim has been trimming him because he also needs sedation for each trim), it made a lot more sense for him to move closer to Kim and her nurse, Amalie, who is adopting him! Billy will continue his rehab journey in their very capable hands 🙏 and joining Billy in his new paddock is the lovely Lillian who has been adopted by Danii 🥰 you may have remembered seeing Danii in some of Lillian's previous videos, those two are quite simply made for each other and I can't wait to see what new tricks Lillian learns in her new home (Danii has already taught Lillian how to smile 😀) Billy and Lilly are already the best of friends and now get to continue on their journey together ❤️

It took me two days to upload the helmet cam footage to YouTube 🤣🤣 but its up! This little reel is a snippet of it, its long, but does give a good idea of the trails we ride and also how much i talk to Pio when we're alone 😅 unfortunately it only recorded 30mins of a 2.5hr ride so I missed capturing the moments of a wombat scurrying out in front of us and Pio having the surprise of his life and the moment he decided to speed across rough ground scaring the heck out of me... oh and also the moment we ACTUALLY got to the lookout! (Yes it does exist) but hey, not too bad for our first helmet cam! Pop over to YouTube at the link below if youre interested 😄 (instagram ill pop a link in our stories)

Arthur was missing... if you guessed he was in this person's yard, you were correct! It has 6 foot colourbond fencing, and two dogs, HOW Arthur got in there remains a mystery, did the humans let him in for some reason? Did he find a secret passageway? Did he fly? The mystery remains.... the main thing is that the two dogs in the yard and him were vibing happily together and no one got injured! Arthur, what a special little weirdo.... (apologies for the swearing, I was genuinely shocked!)

Peters paddock ponies! Its now so cold that these guys are getting two bales of hay a day plus hard feeds as the grass over here has completely died off 😅 the extra hay also helps keep them warmer. Nova is over here at the moment while I work with Billy and Oakley hoof rehab cases, then I can focus on Nova's ridden work again. All looking very good over here though!

Smudge and i had such a lovely little ride today with and Chad with their boys Chance and Red 😄 we added a little bit of extra bush track to today's ride, Smudge and I even had our first proper canter! I cant believe i could ride it one handed while videoing and behind the others! This boy is an absolute pleasure to ride 💕 and yeah, his canter is the same speed as the other horses trotting! 🤣😍

Today I had to say goodbye to my precious old man, Silk. Silk came to us exactly 3 years ago, in May 2023, as a very underweight and sad older gentleman who needed a lot of TLC. He then went on to thrive and got to have a beautiful senior life here at the sanctuary, even with his very own seeing-eye bestie, Pio. This last few days Silk became very confused, I could see him rapidly deteriorating and I wasn't going to let him suffer for one minute so made the very difficult call today. It was forecast to rain, but the universe decided to give Silk and I one last warm and sunny day together. Silk fell asleep with a mouthful of hay and all the cuddles in the world. He had the most beautiful and dignified ending that I believe every horse (and animal) deserves. He gently fell asleep and then he was gone. No suffering, no pain, no fear, surrounded by his herd and his humans. I'm feeling pretty rough tonight, it was an honour to care for Silk in his golden years, not many ex-racehorses get to live to 30 years old, and even fewer get a peaceful ending. We could give that to Silk. It'll be very sad at the farm for a while as we grieve this loss 😪😪

Smudge had his second outing today alongside the lovely with her gorgeous boy Chance 😊 keeping rides super small, slow and easy of course! Smudge is flawless out and about, and he does the most delicately slow trot I've ever ridden 😆 im sure it will improve as he regains his fitness, have to start somewhere! I love spending time with the little guy, he is so gentle and easy to be around 💕

Greyhounds and kangaroos, NEVER a good mix, no matter how well trained your dog is! I post a lot of videos of Bear off-lead being the perfect doggo ever, but when it comes to certain areas of our walk (like this) where I'm 99% sure we'll see a kangaroo he goes on the lead before we get there. This is not only for his own safety, but its also our responsibility to make sure our dogs never chase wildlife. This is their home and we are just passing through respectfully.
