Fast Friends

Today I bought Dancer, picked him up and delivered him to his new home at the Tuthill Farm.  Rather, my friends, Shelia and Dan did.  We all met up at the Park 'n Ride on M-36 and Dan drove and hauled his stock trailer to Gregory where we met Wind Dancer and his owner, Melissa.

It too a little coaxing to get him in the trailer but not more than about 10 minutes.  Melissa was teary-eyed as we took our final photo together and she bade her beloved "Dancer" farwell.  I knew exactly how she felt as I'd just said goodbye to my pup, Suzy, a year ago and still had a hard time without her.

Dan and Sheila loaded the cart and harness, and we pulled away in short order.  Dancer traveled beautifully especially for a 2-year old that'd only been on a trailer once before.  Amazing.  He's so gentle, good natured and interlligent.  I feel I selected a wonderful horse.

Once at the Tuthill farm, Dancer met the resident farn and pranced around his corral.
