Equestrian Journey: Quick Update

Quick Update

I just wanted to give you all a quick update. The horses are doing great. We kept them in an extra day to be on the safe side and then turned them loose this morning on the pasture. Chrome was galloping and bucking around his pen this morning because he'd just had enough with being locked up, so that's why we decided to turn them out. There's a video of his antics below. I missed the good stuff unfortunately. By the time I got the camera he had quit bucking. Oh well. Anyway I'll start my countdown back up tomorrow. Sorry it has taken me so long. I've been so horribly busy and just too stressed to blog. Thank you all for your comments and well wishes during our horrible experience. I'm so relieved and happy my boys are okay.

Sorry if this post is scatterbrained. I'm tired lol. Night guys!

I'm just catching up and very relieved the gorging didn't cause any health issues.

Name: Led Zeppelin
Nicknames: Zep
Sire: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Dam: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Breed: Standard Donkey
DOB: 2007
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
Color: Gray (what do you call the donkey color??)

Date Aquired: My dad rescued/bought him shortly before I brought Chrome home, but he gave him to us on 1-18-10.

Likes: Treats, forehead scratches, his buddies and braying early in the morning.
Dislikes: Being handled at all (his first three years were spent in someone's backyard never being touched), sudden movements and sometimes his bratty pasture mate Chrome. :D

I'm in my thirties, live in the USA and I love horses (obviously). I've been obsessed with Friesians (that's Chrome's purebred Friesian sire in the above picture) for over ten years. I started riding horses when I was five and always had horses from then until 2007 when I found myself without one. I wanted a Friesian, but the budget wouldn't allow for it so I started looking at crosses. I found Chrome (Friesian/Arabian) and I haven't regretted it for a second. I bought him as a five month old weanling in 2009 and I've done all of his training myself. The blog is about our continued journey together as I attempt to make him my dream all around horse who can do anything from dressage, competitive trail riding, driving, mounted archery, working equitation and anything else we want to try. He's still very green and we obviously have a long way to go, but you're welcome to follow along on our journey. I also love dogs, art, photography, writing, reading, fishing, biking, camping, archery and many other things. You can learn more about me on my About Me page, my Equestrian Bucket List page and my FAQ page.
