Boggle- USA bound!

[Michen]

I don’t know why I’m so sad. I’m not going to do anything about it but given I nearly cancelled the vetting anyway I’m surprised I’m sad and not actually relieved he is lame.

God I just hope someone helps him in some way I know there’s a seriously nice horse in there.

The mind works in weird ways!

 

[Michen]

I hope you can all see why I am not rushing to put this horse down at the moment

 

[ROMANY 1959]

He got some sass.

 

[Michen]

He’s literally airborne lol. And this is all the time every day he gallops, every day he leaps.

 

[Roxylola]

I know I’m just so sad I also emailed the practice this morning, Jacks owners are their clients and I’ve asked them to please make sure the report gets to them. I really hope this isn’t ignored for him.

Poor, poor horse. He’s screaming that he can’t do it. I just want to go give him a hug.

But I won’t I will go hug Bog instead who did cheer me up yesterday just being him. I love that I can be pottering around poo picking and then just randomly call him over and he’s like yep! Coming!!

You can't fix them all no matter how much they all deserve owners like you

 

[Michen]

How about a yearling?

I guess I could buy two

 

[Roxylola]

I like the yearling, but I've a funny feeling about Jack, I won't be surprised if he finds his way to you somehow. I agree you definitely don't want to be buying him, but I'm watching this space...

 

[hollyandivy123]

Yeh and he was lame before the flexions anyway- more clear in the report I've just been sent (so quick and professional!).

Poor guy has something going on.

which is probably why there is behaviour issues,

empathy for you and the spirals of vetting a horse

 

[Michen]

For my own sanity I very much hope not lol.

 

[Roxylola]

For my own sanity I very much hope not lol.

Haha, so do I but I dunno. I'll be happy to be proved wrong

 

[BallyRoanBaubles]

Just caught up, gutted for you michen

I was so thinking the same.

 

[Michen]

I REALLY want something to play with over winter. Even if it's a proper project with full intentions to resell. I have a pony project fire in my belly now that needs to be fulfilled!!!

 

[Equi]

Can you ask at your old stables if they know of any?

 

[Sandstone1]

I have the same feeling.... Whats the saying? Whats for you wont go past you!

I so admire you for standing by him and letting him live his days out in a happy and loving home.

He and BBP are kindred spirits! I’m going to take a little break from internetting/social media, but let me know how the project pony search goes!

I already messaged about him! He looks a little boring maybe but I’m keen to know more!

 

[Michen]

Thank you! That is kind but nothing any loving owner wouldn't do.

Omg I mean it's ridiculous and so expensive he costs me a couple of thousand a month retired- it would be far cheaper to have him in boarding. In fact for what it costs he could be in training at a fancy show barn. Mainly because I require so much help and that is not cheap, and the muck removal costs are insane as I can't get a dumpster. And hay- hay costs me $22 a day for both horses currently.

But it is so, so worth it he just loves it here and I love it too- It is the perfect last part of our adventure together. This barn has bought me and him so much peace.

 

[jhoward]

Personally I think you should stop looking at bays...to easy to be looking for a bog without even realising it.
If you want a project how about approaching some rescues? ( presume they have them over there )

And taking something that needs a 1 to 1 relationship? You never know you mY find your dream horse effectly free!

I suggest this as a lot will have behavioural / temperament issues just the challenge you like

 

[Peglo]

The rescue where you got Dusty doesn’t have anything needing a bit of TLC do they?

They know that there is always a stall open for anything they need restarting or helping from a ridden side, but mostly what they have is not ridden. I'd totally take on if they needed help but would prefer to have a ridden project in the barn!

Not everyone would have spent the money or time on a horse that can not be ridden. You have been very unlucky that the things that have gone wrong have done so, but you have also been very lucky in the relationship you have with Boggle and long may it continue.

 

[Michen]

I think he’s a bit too pony- pic of his head.

 

[Ambers Echo]

Oversized ponies are brilliant! Clever, buzz, fun. In my fantasy herd I deffo have a 15.2 Connie/TB.

Though I appear to have bred 2 foals who will both be well over 17hh .

I’m sorry about Jack but the right horse will find you.

I'm not really a chestnut fan but he has such a fun look in his eye and yes, very pony! Calm, intelligent eye too.

 

[Peglo]

I love a chestnut. And a pony. They’re so much fun. I’m sold!

 

[teapot]

Oh cute!

 

[Equi]

Yeah he’s ugly as sin but could be fun to play with a put in the time.
