Doing great!

Fred has been here for almost 2 weeks and is doing awesome. Everyone has fallen in love with him and he is finally coming out of his shell a bit. He is greeting us when we come into the barn in the morning, and expecting his nightly carrots after we feed at night. He finally figured out there is a window facing the barn aisle and is actually using it (before he only stuck his head out the outside window). Nancarrow came out and floated his teeth, he said they actually weren't too horrible...which was surprising considering he was have trouble chewing. But all is good now and he was given a clean bill of health. I am starting to see weight gain on him, and his coat is looking alot shinier.

Fred has his first lesson on Saturday and I am excited to see how he does. He is so awesome when I ride him, so it will be interesting to see how well he behaves with a beginner. Yesterday when I rode him we went on a mini trail ride out around the lake and of course he was a perfect gentleman! He walked right over our wooden bridge and everything. I will try to remember to get pictures of his first lesson, he is looking so good!
