Flame has been an absolute angel since my injury.

She can be a bit of a dragon at times, but over the last few months, she’s been as sweet as pie. I think she knows I’m injured.

She’s spent hours just standing quietly with me, resting by my side. Maybe she is healing me? 🥰

I’m really enjoying spending time with this sweet girl.

Still recovering from my injury, but slowly trying to get back to some normal tasks. Stall cleaning is one of them.
It takes a bit longer and is a little more challenging when you only have one functioning leg and still need two crutches.

But where there’s a will, there’s a way even if it means turning stall cleaning into an extreme sport! Thank goodness I have a husband and kids that help! Couldn’t do it without them. 🥰

I put my crutches down for one minute to hop over and give Valentine a scratch. I turn around because I’m wondering what that noise is and there’s Storm playing with my crutches!

He clearly doesn’t realise that I actually need those things and that I’m stuck without them! 🙈🤣

More healing time with my herd.

Baby Rosa came over to give me a cuddle. She can be so sweet. 🥰

These little moments mean so much to me. I’m so grateful to be able to spend time with my herd again.

Got to spend some time with my herd. 🥰

How sweet are they, coming to stand with me.

I have to fence myself off from them because they absolutely love chewing my crutches, wheelchair and moon boot. 🙈🤣

This is exactly where I want to be. Being with my horses is the best place for me to heal. PS I didn’t fall off a horse.

You may have noticed that this page has been quiet. About a month ago, I slipped on wet grass in the horse paddock during feeding time (no, I didn’t fall off a horse 😅) and dislocated and shattered my ankle. I spent over two weeks in hospital for surgery and recovery.

Recovery will be slow, but I’m making progress. I haven’t been able to see my herd for four weeks and miss them dearly, but I’m incredibly grateful to my amazing friends and family for taking such good care of them. ❤️

Learning about pain management and physio has also given me new insight into how challenging rehabilitation can be for horses.

I’ll return to sharing my herd when I can visit them again. Until then, let’s see what’s in the archive. 😉

The new kid is slowly meeting his new herd.
Yesterday he met Flame and Djinny, which went really well. Flame instantly fell in love with him. 🥰
Today he met Storm, and luckily it was very uneventful. Exactly what we want. 😅
I like to introduce a new horse to each herd member slowly. It gives everyone a chance to adjust, keeps stress levels lower, and helps reduce the risk of injury. There’s no need to rush these things.
The new kid is very well adjusted. He’s lived in a herd most of his life, so he understands herd dynamics and respects boundaries well.
Now we’ll see how he goes with some of the others a few of which can be a little bit more assertive.

Yes we’ve done it again. 😅
Meet the newest addition to our herd!

He’s a 9-year-old bay roan Curly × Quarter Horse, making him hypoallergenic and a great option for people with a horse hair allergy.

Although he’s not a young horse, he still has plenty to learn. Ben will be training him, and we’re hopeful he’ll become a wonderful therapy horse in the future.

Welcome to the family! We’re looking forward to the journey ahead.

Bit of a wet morning, but how cute are all the birds today?
The cockatoos and galahs must have found something tasty in the paddock. They really are such characters.
Unfortunately, my girls chased them off. Whenever they see me, they have to come over and see what I’m doing. The birds seem happy when the horses are standing around but clearly take off when the horses are on the move.

Rosa loves attention and, being a baby horse, she sometimes gets a bit full of herself and excited. 😅
On occasion she pushes boundaries and goes a little too far. Biting is definitely too far.
I gave her a quick boundary by protecting my space. She knew straight away she had crossed the line and quickly settled for cuddles and attention instead. 🥰.
The challenge with young horses is teaching them where the boundaries are while still encouraging their curiosity, confidence and personality.
