HERO GRADUATE UPDATE – DOLCE VITA 🍷

A great update from Dolce Vita, better known as Harper, who is settling beautifully into her new home 🤗

Harper has fitted straight into the herd and has been getting out and about in the hills, which sounds like it suits her down to the ground. We always thought this girl would be happiest out exploring and enjoying life rather than spending all her time in an arena ⛰️

Her new owner says 👇

“We absolutely love her! She’s fit in super well to our herd and has taken to the hills so well. She’s going to be a trekking superstar and I think everyone is going to love her.” 😎

This is exactly the sort of update we like to receive. Harper needed a home that suited the type of horse she is, and it looks like she’s found a pretty good one. We’re looking forward to seeing where her trekking adventures take her! 🪻

And secondly we have Harper (Dolce Vita) a gorgeous girl who has gone through the HERO program (a really awesome program that sets up standarbreds for life after racing), started and schooled by Jenn at SE Standardbred Rehoming & Retraining who has done a superb job!

Look at that shine ✨️

We hope she enjoys her change in career as much as we're going to enjoy having her!
