Spring Renewal Continues

With the snow mostly gone and the ice likely to go out any day with the right wind, it is starting to feel more and more like spring.

This little guy makes it a sure thing.  He arrived sometime Friday night and while still a bit wobbly, is doing great. Now that he is finally here, I might actually be able to get Hannah, his mother, to stand still long enough to trim her hooves and brush the winter matted mess that is her coat.


We have yet to name him, but are seriously considering Matthew.  You can vote in the comments.


Some of you have asked how Karlie is doing.  She has become a very normal puppy with the exception of a few unreasonable fears that she may never get over.  Only time will tell.  She is definitely a happy dog now as opposed to the frightened timid little girl she was a couple months ago.  When we first got her, kicking the ball would have sent her to hide under the truck.  This video from a couple weeks ago when we still had snow illustrates that she is over that fear......thanks largely to Beulah.

  1. Well I for one think he looks like a Matthew. :)

    & I'm utterly delighted that Karlie is doing so well. Good job Beulah!

  2. Are you naming the entire horse Matthew? Or just his backside?

    1. We were thinking the entire Donkey.

    2. I see. Well, apparently I don't. I need a new bifocal prescription clearly.

      So, I agree. Name seems suitable.

  3. I am so glad to hear Karlie is happy and blossoming. You have a real gift with animals. And Matthew would be a great name for that gorgeous baby donkey!
