Thanks for asking - she is doing great! She lives with me now and has a field companion called Peri - a chestnut angloarab in her late teens. Beauty has formed a nice relationship with my OH. She whinnies and whickers at both our cars when they pass her field. Very cute! Maybe he will be able to ride her one day - if she is rideable and not too much for a learner. She has put on weight - so much that I may have to think about cutting back her feed so she doesn't go into spring too fat. She's the sweetest horse - so quiet and gentle and easy to look after. She's still a bit head shy and we haven't done any training or gone out yet. I am going to start taking her out for walks in the forest with Peri soon. I am still in touch with her former owner and he reckons she will like that and be well behaved, after initial excitement. I have a back log of photos to put on her blog but have been so busy with work and looking after all the horses through the snow and winter, I haven't had time to do much with them. Will update when I get a minute or several... She lived out through the snow, double rugged. She looked like a michelin horse! I think she appreciated extra warmth though. She is impossible to keep clean. I gave her neck a little brush yesterday morning, just to make her look a bit more loved. By the afternoon, she had had a major roll in wet sticky mud and was covered head to toe in it! Am so glad she came into my life! She is a joy to have around! Visitors always welcome
