Prince Caspian We Love You
Well we decided. Its time to give Casper a new home. He needs someone to be his partner, his buddy, his confidant and playmate. i just don’t have the time anymore with Jeff working so many hours and with Nina as priority number 1.
Casper is such a good boy. Such a great horse. I’ve been thinking about regrets. Casper is my dream horse. He is the horse I was supposed to go all the way with: Parelli levels, endurance riding, dressage, freestyle. Its wild to think that just a few years ago I never thought I’d ever own a horse and now as life has it, I have my dream horse but life has other plans. Mm. Thats a bitter little pill. Its hard you know to sell a horse, especially one you love. So many use the softer word ”rehome” but to me its just desgined to make you feel better about what is really going on. The fact is-I’m selling him. I’m removing him from my care. It sucks but its true. I made a commitment to him and I didn’t uphold my end of the bargain. That I have to live with.
But the good news is: Its the right thing to do. He needs a partner, he needs more exercises, he needs a job. The truth is I’m really excited for him. I can’t wait to find him his next home. I know he will make a great companion for some special person. He is a horse full of love, kindness and heart. He has a clown’s sense of the absurd but the heart of a lion. We love you Prince Caspian, Casper, Slappy the Boy. You have been a great friend and a great teacher.
You’ll always be my little dream horse, I feel blessed to have had you as a freind and parnter these years.
