of Pepper)
| Summary: |
The family who donated Pepper, Twilight Ginger and Jackie
had financial emergencies that made it impossible for them to
continue to care for these three. Unlike many horse owners,
they didn't wait until there was no feed left in the barn and
the horses were emaciated before asking for help. They
contacted us as soon as they knew they would not be able to
care for their 3 properly throughout the winter, and donated
not only the horses but feed, hay and tack to help us to care
for them.
Twilight is turning 6 in 2008, and the mother of the 2-year
old gelding, Pepper. She arrived fit, a bit overweight, and in very good
health. Her former owner describes her as a very quiet, easy
to ride trail horse, and we're looking forward to weather and
conditions allowing us to get a few rides with Twilight, then
starting to work on finding her a forever home. "Ginger I
was told was used for pleasure riding and driving though I
only used for riding."
Twilight met her new forever mom in mid February.
Kelly, like most of CWER's adopters, rode all through high
school and into college, but then parenthood and life got in
the way for a while. She is now returning to horse ownership,
and partnering with Twilight to do so. They have connected
together fabulously, and its amazing to see how Twilight
settles in Kelly's company. CONGRATS, Kelly and, most of all,
Congrats TWILIGHT!

History:

Intake
Notes: Twilight
arrived a bit overweight but healthy, current on all her
shots and coggins, and ready to ride. She's a bit barn
sour but more attached to Jackie than any other problems
seen so far. As weather allows, we hope to get some nice
rides on her and start looking for the perfect forever
home for this broad chested, magnificent looking mare. |

Kelly came
and met Twilight in mid February, and the two of them
connected immediately. AnnMarie rode Twilight for Kelly,
and Kelly was even more interested in this beautiful
mare. A few days later, Kelly was back to ride Twilight
for herself and, immediately, to complete an adoption
application for her new partner. Twilight rides
exceptionally well under Kelly's confident and patient
hand, and the 2 of them make an excellent team.
On
February 24, 2008, Twilight went to her boarding
barn with her new mom. She had a great ride at her new
place, settled in well, and seemed calm, relaxed, and
happy. CONGRATS TWILIGHT!
Later in 2008
she was joined by her new sister, Mia, and they are
doing fabulously together!
