A new chapter in a new location

A huge milestone today!
 
With Kaylee recently turning 1 and the belly still not 100%,
Linda and I made a decision to move Kaylee to a small barn in Sutton. It was not a decision made easily 
as we have made great friends and enjoyed our time at CMS and LHER. 
We would like to thank all of you who came by to wish us luck and see us off.
 Today was not goodbye! 
Linda and I still will be involved with LHER. We will
be doing a foal feeding shift and I will still be there for the building projects.
This move was made in the best interest of Kaylee. 
The new location is a private home barn owned by
one of Linda's friends who is very passionate about horses and is very 
interested in helping us with Kaylee's development and well being.
Kaylee is one of four horses and has her own stall and for the time being a paddock to herself.
We are continuing to keep her on a strict Forage diet that seems to be 
helping  to keep the belly on the road to recovery. As she progresses we will
work on introducing her to grasses slowly with the hopes of someday
allowing her to graze in a large paddock as a horse is meant to do.

Charlie.

  2. I agree, she looks quite content! I am sure this was a difficult decision, but it already appears that Kaylee thinks you did the right thing!
