This week we had the long awaited delivery of the pea gravel in the barn. Chris has wanted this for 2 years ever since he started barefoot trimming the horses. The horses feet have got a bit soft from all the rain, and this has been causing no end of problems on the tour as the hoof boots tend to come off in the mud. Now the gravel is in and toughening up their feet nicely. Mind you gravel and horse poo don't go hand in hand, and pulling on rubber gloves to clean up this morning was not top of my list of things to do on a Sunday; but there you go, these are the things we do for our animals!


Talking of animals, our latest rescue Trevor is now ready for adoption. He came to us after a traffic accident in which he came off worst than the car! He is a big goof ball and such a wonderful dog. I think out of all the dogs we have fostered this is going to be the hardest one to let go.  He will make a great addition to someones family and can go to the USA if anyone is looking for a dog!!


Today is 4th July and we are off to a beach barbeque so that we can be geared at by the Americans!! haha only kidding, but i won't be wearing my Union Jack teeshirt though. Chris always jokes that our American friends only invite us so they can throw us out again!!


Happy Independence day USA. The photos are of Trevor !
