Baby girl is back at Safe Harbor! I would say that we missed her but I’m not sure the neighbors were too happy she was home. She spent the first two days (and nights) calling for her bestie Jewel, who was stalled in the other barn. It was a bit of an adjustment being separated from Jewel but she got through it and is now settling into the routine of the barn. Our volunteer rider Sydney is working Stella as part of her senior class project. She’s started with the basics of groundwork and Stella seems to be remembering the work, so things are going nicely. Stella is pretty sensitive and quite inquisitive in nature, and that can help when teaching her new things. As long as she is prepared for the next steps, she is a smart mare and should be relatively easy to get started under saddle with a rider.
