Virtually no excitement about loading. I worked with her again yesterday and she was golden. The only hitch about today is that shen I would back out beside her to close the butt bar, she'd back out too. :teehee: It took me a few minutes to convince her that it was okay. I had another friend stand at the front with some feed and VOILA she got it. :rofl:

Anyway, it went without a hitch. The BO at the "new" barn didn't even offer to help or say goodbye. I've also been asking for two weeks to have a lesson, and she never responded. I guess my feelings were bang on about her. Bummer.

Glad the trailering went okay. Well, did Luna know that she was "home?" Did she pick up where she left off?

Hope you were able to leave without incident (with the lesson person BO) and that the new (old) BO (crazy man) won't rub your nose in anything from the past.

Are you feeling relieved?

Treatment has been fine. I know it must have been a good decision because when I pulled the trailer into the driveway, I smiled and felt like I was "home". I guess this explains why I like stripper poles and gold thongs. :teehee:

Luna is settling in just fine., Better than I thought she would. I put her out in the stud pens when I arrived for a couple of hours. She called once then just walked around and grazed quietly. I brought her to her stall and she dove into her hay and never looked up. I went back up later tonight to feed her some beet pulp and meet some friends for dinner and she was looking peachy. The only hitch was when I went in to give her stall a quick pick and she literally LIMBOED under her stall chain when my back was turned. I only had the top one hooked up as she's never offered to go anywhere before.. She wandered up the aisle to visit an old mare, then I caught her before she got too far away. I guess the door will be CLOSED and latched when I'm not there. She can't be trusted!

Tomorrow she goes out with her old boyfriend, so I hope she maintains her sanity when she comes back in.

I have not kept up but I knew you were having awful care problems with the "New" barn.
I hope Old barn owner keeps his Assholery down and takes the shooting to a shooting range! At least you know your lvoely mare will be cared for.
Best of luck! :clap: :)

I'm heading up there to see how's she and her "boyfriend" are doing. I imagine they're VERY happy. SO far they "assholery" is very low. He said he's happy to have me back and he's fixed my stall up beautifully without me asking (well I asked for plywood on the walls...) but he put in sand and mats and fixed a coupke of other things. He also put sand down at my gate in the turnout where she had bruised her feet.

He does this when you're "new" though. Hubby is just telling me to steer clear of him. I think BO makes him nervous.

Sounds like he is happy to have you back.
HEs a strange egg thats for sure. LOL Hubby is probably smart to feel nervous about him.
Guns are fine but in the right surroundings. I pray you and luna will have happy times there.! :clap: :hug:

Just so all of you know, AngelainTexas is the ANGEL who helped me load Luna when I moved her in November, ya know, when she grew horns and a tail??? Talk about a true friend, she even offered to come and pick her up again!!

I'm happy to be back!! Missed you guys. Now you can regale the group with stories of our "unique" BO so they don't think I'm making it up! :innocent:

So glad Miss Luna had a safe trip back. Hopefully she settles right in for you.

Nice that BO is being pleasant also. That makes life easier!
