Dee's Story
Dee arrived with her sister Rain. The 2 mares were left relatively unhandled for a number of years and have become skittish about being caught. Dee, seems to be the easier of the 2 mares to catch and is slowly getting more comfortable with basic handling. It is clear they know their stuff but are rusty. Dee has loads of potential if she could be handled and caught daily, shown some fun, loving experience's to build her confidence back and give her the groove back in her step. Although we know of no health issues she did come in quite over weight so as with all our minis she is on a low sugar diet. Dee is up to date with her shots (although nervous she was very polite for our vet)and dental work and has had a few farrier appointments since arriving. She is ready to go either with her sister Rain or off on her own adventure. We have been slowly separating the mares, they tend to feed of each other and get more stressed when we catch them. Currently they live side by side. Dee has been getting handled by one of our friends who is a teenaged girl with horse experience. She reports that she leads well once caught and they have ben enjoying some hand walks together around our farm.
