Lucky Buckskin Mare 1976 - January 17, 2009   Lucky was the "grand dam" of our farm. We were a team for over 28 years.  I purchased Lucky in August of 1980 and we began our journey together.  Along the way, Lucky blessed me with five beautiful babies...one of which we still have to remember her by. Lucky and I traveled together where ever the winds of time have taken us - from High River, Alberta, where we started our journey - to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan (in the back of a truck with stock racks no less) - and to our final resting place - Mundare, Alberta. Lucky has known many places to lay her head with the final being here in Mundare. Lucky did lots for me and my family...teaching us patience, tolerance, and acceptance.  Patience because she could be so damn hard to catch.  Tolerance because of her quirkiness and finicky eating habits.  And acceptance of her not being "like" all the other horses...who loved us and our attention. She always played by her own rules.  Allowed things to be done to her in her own time...and never ever let me forget that she could outrun me at the drop of a hat.  She also never gave into the "horse whisperer" training that we all, at one time, try to adopt for our horses. Lucky struggled a little this year.  Both with her weight and her position in the herd.  I could tell by late fall that it was going to be a hard winter, but then she would rally every time I thought "okay this is it". We went away on vacation in early January and Lucky was never the same after I left.  Melissa struggled to keep her going until I got home...but it was just not meant to be.  In the early morning of January 17, Melissa went out to the barn to feed and found Lucky down.  After some frantic calls to find me in Mexico, more to her grandparents in BC and then a final one to the vet, the decision was made to put Lucky down. She went peacefully and quietly over the Rainbow Bridge. I said my good-bye's to my dear old friend on January 19 when she was laid to rest in her favorite clearing. She truly was my "once in a lifetime" horse and will NEVER be forgotten.

 

Semi Sweet Doc Chestnut AQHA Mare 1983 - 2007   SIRE SIDE OF PEDIGREE Docs Adonis Doc Bar Lightning Bars Dandy Doll Collins Daisy NCHA:  $555.61  Jessie James NCHA:  $18,961.35 Daisy Clegg DAM SIDE OF PEDIGREE Peggy Dandy My Texas Dandy Jr. My Texas Dandy Dandy Beth Herndon Little Peggy McCue Waggoner Annie Bell McCue D We purchased Semi Sweet Doc in May of 2004 to add some power to our broodmare herd. Semi has blessed us with two stunning foals.  One is being kept as a possible replacement for her in the broodmare band and the other will be our third stallion.  Both have really nice pedigrees for the cutting ring.  Semi's health has been slowly deteriorating this year due to injuries.  In May, she suffered a huge chest injury and then in June, in yet another accident, she suffered some nerve damage to her face.  While neither are life threatening, they were enough that they have caused her some difficulties in both mobility and her ability to eat properly. With great thought and in consult with her vet, we have made the extremely hard decision to have Semi put down before the cold Canadian winter sets in.  It was an very emotional day for us here but we know our decision was for the best as Semi had really started to deteriorate in body condition even with all the extra feed we were giving her.  Semi's last day with us dawned very cold and blustery but her energy and zest for all good things...mainly her breakfast...was undiminished.  Her zest for life will never be forgotten and her spirit will live on forever in her foals and especially in my memories. May she rest in peace!!!
