Been So Long, Spunky!

//Roleplay Story//

 

We went quiet for a while, but we're still alive! After that huge flood everything was absolutely destroyed. It was cheaper to just sell the land and move.

And move we did.

Don't worry, Chingis and another horse was found and they're both safe.

Those who been following and working with us for a while can tell you we go through a lot of horses, finding them homes. Those who have, however, may recognize a familiar face in these next couple of pictures!

That's right, it's Smokey. That poor little foal we had to give up. So what happened?

About 2 years ago we purchased a little foal by the name Smokey Bowmore. Smokey was a spirited little arabian and we all enjoyed him at the stables. We had him for a few months before finances burdened the stables and we had to let go of some horses. Including Smokey. It was just no place for a foal at the time, and during this time we lost Nomad's dad, Boss.

For those of you who don't know, Boss was the lead stallion of our herd at the time, living up to the age of 18. He was a very proud stallion and carried himself like he was top shit, but sadly, one morning Boss was being turned out and got hit with a heart attack.

Why's that story so important? Smokey loved Boss, as most of the lil ones did. Smokey didn't take the loss well at all, and mixed with the financial troubles, it was in his best interest to give him up.

Couple years later, after that flood, we got to moving everything and found a nice plot of land. My boyfriend, Cole, was up one night sitting on the computer, looking for a new horse for us to bring in and this little arabian that was for sale caught his eye, and once he got my attention to look, I took no hesitation to call up the owner.

We jumped through some hoops, one thing lead to another, and Smokey is now safe at his new, and forever home.

We were worried he wouldn't remember the horses he was around at the old place, but he luckily remembers Sage, Chingis, Nomad, and Bambi.

It'll take some adjusting, but he'll be just fine here. We're glad to have the spunky lil' guy back home.
