Happy Two Years, Francie

Guess who's celebrating two years with us?  Remember way back when?  The bony, wormy, skittish and terrified mare that I brought home the day after Thanksgiving?

Well here she is today.  Look at that healthy belly! 
Yes, Francie is doing just fine these days.  Enjoying more pasture time than riding time, with my busy schedule, but she seems happy and enjoys extra treats and following me down the driveway every morning when I get the boys on the bus. 
 I know some of you have been following Francie's story from the beginning, so i do try to give an update now and then.

I truly hope she doesn't remember much from her days before she came to Two Bears Farm.

    Would you like to give her a companion (or four) for her birfday? I would be happy to accommodate and fully fund such a present :)

    I'm glad you came to her rescue. She looks really pretty!

    I hope the previous owners have given up on caring for animals they can't take care of.

    She's beautiful. My daughter's rescue horse Seamus is thriving too. All they needed was a caring person. Those two horses got lucky.

    This has been a wonderful story and I'm so happy you've allowed so many readers to share in it. Francie is clearly, a very happy and healthy horse now with the past behind her and a delightful present and future. You were a blessing, Lisa when you rescued her. The change you brought about has been remarkable! ;)

    I love seeing Francie's continued success story with you. And.. my horses spend far more time in pasture than under saddle, and that's just fine by me.. and them, I'm sure!

    Would love to see a before and after post of Francie - Then.. and now. The transformation is incredible.
