Some people are just extra lucky and today it was my turn. Two years ago beautiful Harmony the Arabian mare arrived for my birthday. Last year it was Jonathan donkey and lovely Moon Dancer. Today Tango, Toby and Tawny mules arrived!!!! They are so special. HorsePlus had rescued them from Lassen County and they have been mistreated. They are spooky and do not like people very much.
I took lots of pictures so soon you will be able to see them. Toby is a dun mule with tiger stripes on his legs. Tango is a brown molly mule and Tawny is a curly molly mule.
The previous owner had not been kind to them, and tomorrow I will call Lassen County to see if I can get more information on them.
They are in with the upper herd. They received quite a welcome when they came. Juan ran into the turnout to get better acquainted. Sparkle and Ruby waited at the gate as they arrived. Most of the horses chose to ignore them after a bit, but Marnie was fascinated. He wanted to visit and get to know them. Hopefully, they will settle down tonight and have a peaceful day tomorrow.
HorsePlus Humane Society and Home At Last work closely together to try to give unadoptable equines a safe forever place to live. Thanks, Tawnee, for bringing my presents. (Can hardly wait until next year. Maybe I'll get 4 somethings).
Jim spent the day building fences. We are going to close in the front so there will be some hope of a garden. I know most folks would pen in the animals, but we love to have them roaming around. Besides, the thin ones can eat all day without being bothered by anyone.
My day was more mundane- laundry, dishes, housework and of course, feeding and watering.
Need to order Ivermectin dewormer. Anyone have any extra they'd like to send to us? We use a lot. POBox 4129 Yankee Hill CA 95965
Supposed to rain again tomorrow. Larry from Wilson's Worms hasn't been able to get his truck and trailer in yet. Tawnee got stuck and Jim and CoralBelle the tractor pulled her out.
Hope all of you had a pleasant day. Thank you for your kindnesses and support.
