It shouldn’t feel like a luxury item in the horse world to let horses mourn, decompress, adjust to the newness of big changes, but it is.
Having worked in all kinds of boarding facilities doing body work on all kinds of horses, I’ve seen it all, I have observed the rush, the impatience, the lack of time horses truly need for big changes.
The urgency to get back into work from the owners, honestly, it made my heart hurt so deeply that I almost unknowingly set out on a mission to change things.
I may not be changing the horse worlds way of horse keeping on a large scale but I’ll advocate for better, slower care until I’m blue in the face!
I have had the greatest honor of changing things for these precious souls, and witnessing Jetta take nearly a year to assimilate herself back into the senior herd after Peggy O’s passing, Jetta was a one horse mare, Peggy O was her best friend.
Luna took the loss pretty hard as well and what I’ve observed lately is Luna being attached to Jetta and Willow being solidly part of the senior mare herd with Kix as the their fearless leader.
Willow is the most independent mare, you’ll see her head off into the woods and upper fields alone, she enjoys her solitude and is hands down the calmest drama free mare here. ♥️
