Well. As the title implies, today I became the owner of an alleged Connemara pony mare:
I’m “splitting” the project with my trainer ie I am covering her purchase price and vet/farrier and she will cover boarding costs and provide training with the hope to rehab her and make her a nice little project.
Still working on getting shipping covered to New England, but she should be here next week if all goes according to plan.
The excitement is wearing off a little bit and the “oh god what have I done” thoughts are getting loud. I hope if nothing else this little lady gets a soft landing with us while we get her some vet and farrier care and anything else is frosting. Fingers crossed!!
