Some words from you about Justus!

Some words from you about Justus!

We are missing Justus a lot! Still I am grateful that I had the honour to spent half my life with him which outweighs the sadness I feel about having lost him.

Good Bye, Justus!!!

On the 7th of October 2011 I found Justus lying in his field. He recognized me and reacted, but he had very little breathing and could not get up. On the sight of his feed bucket he sat up, took a mouthful, started chewing and lay down again.

Daphne Pease’s Huluk, Welsh Section gelding turns 40!

Daphne Pease’s Huluk, Welsh Section gelding turns 40!

Happy 40st Birthday, Huluk!!! Huluk has only joined us here at MindBUZZler, Aytounhill in January 2011 after his owner died back in December 2010. So, we cannot take any credit for Huluk having gotten as old as he is today, but it is all down to Daphne’s tender loving care and possible huge amounts of pony nuts in all those horsey years. Fortunately, our Justus (who is ONLY 30) and Huluk had met earlier in … Read entire article »
