Sheba in a very relaxed pose
Deep sleep!
Sheba is a wonderful dog! If I ever thought highly of the Rhodesian Ridgeback as a breed, I am amazed by its character after being a first owner for less than 48 hours. She’s an independent soul who doesn’t want to be told what to do (but […]
Late Monday afternoon, my father and I drove down to Landskrona to pick up one lovely little Rhodesian Ridgeback lady, who had grown many sizes since we saw her last! (and that wasn’t very long ago!)
This was evident when we tried the first carrier, which was way to small!
This one however fit perfectly! Here are […]
In my life, there are lots of animals, but some will for always stand out a little more than others.
When my beloved Aslan had piroplasmosis a few months ago and died despite a very positive prognosis, I couldn’t blog about it. In life, there are a few things that happen that just aren’t “fair game”, […]
Last week, Isolde had the adventure of her life, when she followed her mother outside for the first time. It was small excursion, crossing the road in order to get to Josef and Renate’s large garden, but the world outside offered more than enough impressions for the young filly, who desperately tried to get in […]
The picture of the day this week is none other than a photo of Isolde saying hi to Tabita for the first time! Isolde loves people, and people just love her! Right now, Tabita’s games are all centered around “Arwen the horse” and “Isolde the foal” and Isolde is happy to have so many people […]
Today is Anette’s birthday, and so what better than to post some Isolde highlights from her first week in life? Here is a post for all horse-lovers!
DAY ZERO: Arwen hasn’t more than come back from her afternoon walk when she starts foaling. Ali heads out to inform Anette, who arrives 12 minutes later to a […]
Arwen foaled yesterday! It’s was a perfect delivery with everything going by the book. Anette had the ungrateful task of keeping Arwen from stepping on her own placenta before it had been complete expelled, but that disagreing part will quickly be forgotten when the result is a perfect little filly with beautiful lines!
Arwen is the […]
Anette texted me 3 hours ago to say that Arwen had just foaled! I’ve been on the phone ever since: a huge thanks to skype for making it possible to be in touch for a long time without risking financial ruin!
Although none of us expected Arwen to foal in day time and absolutely not in […]
Someone is getting ready for delivery… 10½ months right now so it could be just about any day!
Seems like Junior is leaning to the side…
But whenever he decides to pop out, there will be milk waiting for it!
Arwen cutting the lawn at the Eden office…
…with a belly that is growing sideways!
The latest changes is that Arwen & Sahara was now buddies and do everything together again.
Even drinking from the same water bowl…
