We moved, and without an injury at that. We started the morning with a little B Kalm paste. Let it be known that Bubblegum flavoring and coloring probably not the best idea for a horse paste, but we did manage to get a lot of it in. It was just enough to take the anxiety away for the trailer ride.
After packing up my tack store amount of horse items, we loaded K in the trailer, turned on the trailer cam, and pulled away from the barn. No screaming or kicking. With my little trailer TV, I was able to stalk K and see that she was calmly watching out the window.
After the 30 minute ride, we safely arrived at our new home. We were greeted by a multitude of whinnies, which K had to return. We pulled her from the trailer, looked her over and breathed a huge sigh of relief. She hadn't even broken a sweat.
As we walked into the barn, every Morgan head in the barn was peeking out of the stalls to see who the newcomer was. K was also very curious, turning to look at everyone as we walked by. She settled into her stall quietly, and immediately started to eat. Her stall is open and airy, with 30 foot ceilings and a skylight, along with a view of the indoor arena. This is the horse version of the penthouse. Her next door neighbor happens to be the same neighbor she had at the barn we trialed her at...she already has a barn buddy.
I unloaded my tack, set up house, and headed home. K watched me walk away, not in a "take me home" kind of way, more like "See ya Monday, Mom!"
We're going to really enjoy our new home. :)
