I came in from chores about 30 min ago--it was 1* out when I left and 7* when I came back in-it's painful for me--cold hands, but the horses take it in stride. It's utterly still out, so they don't mind at bit. The wind they'd avoid in this temp.
I loaded their stalls last night with piles of loose hay/straw we saved up in the barn. Oh--they were snuggly. Rosie and the foals are free to roam inside the barn at night--I open both their stalls so they have lots of room. It's supposed to be 25 today. I'll believe it when I see it.
Oh, I'd not say Mazie is my favorite.. Tucker is so wrapped around my heart, and finger. :lol: He is a love bug. He lifts his muzzle to be kissed over and over. As long as I'm kissing him, he'll stand still for more. He'll be gelded on Feb 16th so he can stay with the herd forever. Rosie thinks she's a dog--she follows me everywhere! I so love them all--my favorite changes every 30 min. :wink:

Your new 'babies' are getting so big. Thank you for sharing pictures with us. Somewhere I read/saw of a blind person who used a mini as a seeing-eye aide. Other than the obvious, although it can't be much larger than a golden or lab, they have many of the same qualities as the dogs; loyal, very loving, extremely smart. I think it would be a great choice. It seems they were having quite a problem being admitted to places, even where seeing-eye dogs were allowed. Not fair.

Your horses are wonderful. We thought about getting 2 last year, in fact I went and looked at 2 in Rainy River, at Last Chance stables.
As a kid we always had a horse but it just didn't work out this time.
Guess it just wasn't meant to be.

Mona Lisa, is your Avatar a Sheltie? Beautiful dog. I had 2 but we lost our female last year. She was 18 and a blue merle. She was from England. Her hubby is from North Dakota. He's a tri but mostly black and white. You have to search for his tan. He is 15. Wonderful dogs.
