Got a couple of updates for you on the Diamond Lazy H horses.
Remember Midnight Mesa? She has been resold to a young family and is doing great! Not the greatest photos but all I can get. She apparently instantly loved her new people. Mom rides her sorting cattle and daughter is doing leadline gymkhana on her.
Then there is a Derby update:
The lady who bought him as a stallion prospect decided to put him up for sale as she just wasn't clicking with him. And I'm happy to say, that he will be joining his brothers! Yup, he was sold to the young lady who owns and rides Rio, and will be living with Rio, Kai, Josie and Pistol. I am so happy that the Perrott family likes the DLH horses enough to have bought 6 of them over the years! I don't have any current photos of him, hopefully I will be able to go to Alberta this summer and get photos of him with his siblings.
I decided that Jayne can be turned out with Sophie during the day, and back in her pen at night. That way they are both likely to get more exercise. Sure enough, Sophie took it upon herself to herd Jayne around right away!
I included that photo because it shows that s'picious bump on Sophie! I actually hope she isn't in foal!
Had to throw in at least one decent photo....
or two, for my Jayne update.
Jayne will not only be going to live with Shayla, she will be owned by her too! I decided to gift her to Shayla, partly because it is such a great home for her to live out her days (she will be 20 this year), and partly to help Shayla get another mare with great bloodlines in her herd as she establishes herself as a breeder. And I know Shayla loves her! Such a sweet mare.

I do enjoy these updates very much. Love your beautiful horses and it is great to see how they progress in their new homes.
Mesa looks great. She really filled out, and it’s amazing she’s already a kid’s horse. She was a sweetie.
I don't think I knew you when you had Mesa but what a handsome horse.
A testament to your horses that the family continue to be repeat customers. I love that Shayla and you have built such a great relationship and complimentary breeding program! I think I recall Mesa, she is lovely
I love to see your horses working - any horse working, in contrast with mine.
And IMO chestnuts look best in snow, cuz of the firey shade to their coats, they look warm.
I just posted a blog entry that could use your advice, keeping horse tails in order in mud. Please take a look?
So happy that your horses all have good homes. Shayla is so lucky!!
Love the background in the "decent" photo. Oh, and at horses are pretty nice too. The repeat customers seem awesome. Wonderful gift for Shayla. Nice update.
How neat. I had to come and catch up on your animals.
Pictures with kids and horses make me smile. I've taught all my grands how to ride and they enjoyed it.
I miss having children around!
Beautiful photos.
Great update and I love the photo of Jayne with the mountain background!
