We are back on it fully as of this week for Salina, and although it involves having four ingredients on hand and a customized supplement, it is worth it. She loves eating her meals and it's clear she is getting all the nutritional needs met when you see her coat and energy level.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-53407266538614459852011-05-18T19:04:54.149-05:002011-05-18T19:04:54.149-05:00I have a feeling that you're going to get a go...I have a feeling that you're going to get a good new neighbor - that place sounds wonderful. The senior diet that you mention sounds like something I need to investigate. Silk is doing better, but I'd like to feel that she's getting everything she needs to stay healthy. I'm going to check it out.

We will be checking it out more soon.<br /><br />The property is now officially listed on the market - get your loan approved unless you have a secret stash of cash!

I am very interested in the property down the lane - I need to work on my funding.ponymaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996833096239732307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-34503292144645216522011-05-13T19:44:47.509-05:002011-05-13T19:44:47.509-05:00Thank you, C.

We had a lovely massage time today, at 11, and Salina got so relaxed she looked like she was going to fall down for a moment! <br /><br />I also had the neighborhood horsewomen over for a barnyard brunch and some talk about equine muscles and also some exciting news - it turns out we have a fairly complex trail system (private) right in our back yard, practically. In addition to creating a perimeter community trail, there is the possibility of miles of trail to ride. <br /><br />Who knew? We're working on figuring it all out.<br /><br />And... if anyone is interested in a horse property down the lane, contact me privately (billie AT billiehinton DOT com). There is a brand new listing as of today.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-38417945132425009352011-05-13T19:36:09.153-05:002011-05-13T19:36:09.153-05:00Lovely post billie.

She sounds like such a special horse and it does sound as if she loves the time spent getting groomed and fussed over. The senior horses have so much to share with us and the peace and relaxation are just a small part of all they have to offer if we would only take the time to listen. This may sound silly but even though I have never met Salina I feel like I know her and just hearing about her morning rituals makes me smile.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.com
