since we brought Donovan home!
He has settled in so well, been out in the field every day, doesnt seem to worry if he is on his own which is great, so I dont have to wait for someone else to turnout, or be up there early to get in. But tommorrow is the first day he is gonna have a friend in the field with him!
He is also happy in his stable, he has a neighbour either side, but again nice and calm when they go out and leave him.
I took him into the school today to try and start with some voice commands for him, i.e walk on and stand, but there were some very pretty girlies in the field next door, which seemed to take his concentration rather quickly!

We seem to of formed a real bond really quickly, I just stand at the gate and call him, and he comes cantering over, really seemily pleased to see me!
I have never understood until now when people say they just knew their horse was the one for them, but I really get it now.
I had a couple of down days feeling almost dis-loyal to Benson, but in the end, Donovan has given me my life back.
I feel I have found a real friend in this little man, and I cant wait to see what the future brings. xx
