Well, yesterday didn't go quite as planned! Ruby was an absolute star, looks fabulous and is now back home where she should be with her friends. She was overjoyed to see me, and behaved like a horse twice her age during some very tricky moments through out the day.
Missy looked stressy and jumpy as soon as we arrived. She was flinging her head a lot and barging about (not something she ever does at home). After 4 1/2 hours trying to load her into the trailer, we put her back in her box and left her at Leahurst!!!!
So, we're back up there today (3 hours each way accross the penninies!!!) without the partitions. One of the problems was that she'd had acp prior to us arriving, and i'm not sure that helped us much. It meant she wasn't remotely interested in food, and she was very disassociated with the world around her. Good for some, not so good for miss.
So, i will update tonight when hopefully we have both girls home!

| Oh no, how frustrating - and believe me I know what it is like to spend 4.5 hours trying to persuade a horse into a trailer. Hope it goes better today, and you will have Missy back where she belongs. At least you have Ruby home safely. Congratulations on their recovery, which is the main thing |

Well, she's back, Hooray!!!
It took a while (2 hours), but i was determined she wouldn't get stressed. When i got there this morning she was very pleased to see me. She looked very tucked up and stressed. After spending half an hour with her she was much more relaxed, and was happy to start mnaking steps toowards the trailer. To cut a long story short patience paid off and she's home. They were all overjoyed to see each other.
Ruby looks fabulous, really well and back to herself. She doesn't mind being boxed during daylight hours at all and is quite happy to eat her haylage and lick her horselix all day.
Missy has paid the price a bit and looks generally a bit poor and upset. She'll get there, but she's had a rough time poor thing.

Grape juice, lol.
All quiet this morning. They're still out at the moment, as i have some sorting out to do before they can both go in (doing things for the first time at 5.50am, in the dark with no electricity is never a good plan if you can avoid it!) So they'll have a few hours of daylight today, though looking at the sky we are not going to see much in the way of uv light today!!! As from tomorrow they'll be going in first thing and then out again after dark for 6 weeks.
They all seem very relaxed and happy. Missy had lots pof straw in her tail, so she'd obviously been taking it easy.
