    I'm praying all goes well for both girls. They couldn't have landed in better hands than yours, Julie. And I'm sure people won't mind digging in their pockets to help with their medical expenses. So, never be embarrassed about asking for that help. We all love what you do for all these horses. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, Thank you for saving and giving them a life no one else would have. From your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦 🙏

      So do I. But if it doesn't, Fletcher Farms has saved them from the slaughter places. How these intelligent animals are treated there should be criminalized....
      Forever grateful to Fletcher Farms ❤❤

      @user-qi6yo7xt4l I'm doing well, Claudia. Just very busy with training and teaching. And this year, campaigning 2 of the 3 horses I have in for training. I'll be back in the fall, when things slow down a bit. Right now I'm also helping with summer camp as well. Not enough time to indulge in watching John's videos. By the time I get home, I'm just too darn tired! All I want is a cooling shower, some supper, and my bed!! But I'm staying safe and doing well. Let John know I say hello, please. Your friend, Jenn 💖

      @ClaudiaThomas-c7d I also recently broke my right wrist very badly. So I'm focusing on the Orthopedic end of things right now. As it looks like I'll have to have surgery to repair it. Fighting pain daily at the moment, or else I'd be watching John's videos. Please let him know I'm still watching, just not able to comment very well right now. Best Regards to you, Jenn. 💖

    and knowledge needed to do it right.

    The eye tumors seem to be a thing with this breed. Can you comment on that?

      I don’t know if it’s something to do with the breed but this is the 4th horse we have had that has had eye tumors.
