Herzlicht (a/k/a/ "Heart Felt") is having a grand time and seems to absolutely love the camera. Thanks to Christine for sending so many wonderful pics -- he's a very photogenic and very healthy, happy boy. Can't wait to meet him -- counting down the days!!!
HF encountered his first large puddles today after a major rain storm last night. While mom (Hoffnung) decided to go around the water, HF had a blast going in and out on multiple occasions. He then felt so good he leaped into the air for sheer pleasure's sake!!! And before sacking out with mom, HF posed for a very nice head photo...
And we're SOOOOOOO happy to share that Hoffnung is in foal again to Happy Hour (using the other half dose of frozen semen left -- inseminated about 12 hours or so post-ovulation - way to go Happy and Hoffnung!). While we were concerned the vet missed that "window of opportunity," our "pregnancy prayer" did the trick.
Congratulations to Christine and very best wishes to Ms. Hoffnung for another very healthy, happy and safe pregnancy and foaling. And this one could be even larger...
Thanks so much JRR. We are very excited, to say the least about HeartFelt, and we're receiving absoutely super (and objective) feedback regarding his conformation, bone, movement and his mind. He is beyond his very tender age in his mental maturity. Can't wait to meet Christine, HeartFelt, Hoffnung and the rest of the gang!
