A wonderfully fun update from Chester’s owners…
Dear Windrush Farm Family,
Just wanted send you a long overdo update to let you know that Chester is doing well. He has re-earned the nickname ‘the pesky pony’!! I think we both forgot that he thinks that he is a dog stuck in a pony’s body! He and Chances are getting along over walls and fences (I have not yet put them together, but that will probably happen this summer… when there is lots of grass to keep them both entertained!). He is currently getting over an access in his right front frog (yeah… I have no clue how that one happened). We have it drained and are working on it healing, but he was only uncomfortable for about 24 hours. We have been out on quite a few rides and just recently he realized that I was ok with him hand galloping up the hills in the neighborhood. (needless to say, there is a big grin on my face!) He has also taken up Chances favorite morning routine… around 10am almost every day is nap time! And we just started them out on the grass Sat. Chester gets to be loose in the backyard… only a halter and a lead rope. He has been so good do far… he goes only to certain points and turns himself around and head back in the other direction… he trims around the gardens but has not yet thought about venturing where he doesn’t belong. I told Mark that it looks like he has a new ‘lawn boy’!!!
Thanks again for letting him come back to us… we are really enjoying the little ‘monkey’!!
