It’s been quite some time since I posted on my stable page. After losing my Howard last June, there hasn’t been much to celebrate, until recently.
Today, Dale Hartley fulfilled a life long dream of becoming a horse owner! Noka arrived 2 weeks ago for assessment and evaluation. She settled in almost immediately, has gained weight, and returned to her baseline behavior…slightly neurotic but manageable 🤣. Dale has been here with Noka every day, providing a consistent presence, helping her establish her new routine, and reestablishing their former bond.
We are thankful to Joy Baker for reaching out to me, when it became clear that Noka was struggling at Fair Haven. We are grateful to Wendy-Jo and the leadership at camp for allowing Noka to retire after her many years of service as a camp horse. Noka has many fans from her years at Fair Haven and while she has been well loved, I believe she has earned the privilege of having her own person. I am excited to continue to work with Dale & Noka and see many happy trails in their future!
I too was the recipient of an amazing gift horse this past week. I am waiting for the opportunity for a photo shoot before I post about the new horse in my life!
It’s raining mares, hallelujah! Stay tuned for more from The Master’s Stable!!
