debris4spike: (DJ - plaited!)

I had an answer from Stacey, late last night as to how DJ is settling into his new surrounding.  Even though he is on a month's trial, it looks as if he has found his new home.

I have copied and pasted her answer, both so I can keep it (!), as well as so you can see it yourselves -

DJ is proving to be an absolute star and i feel he has a whole family very much in love with him already.
The mother rode him in a floodlit arena with massive mirrors around two sides and he seemed to be very impressed with what he saw - reflection wise! wasnt phased or spooked, so the little boy ( 7 i think) go on to walk, trot and canter.....even though the little boy has only just learned to canter!

He was used today in a small group lesson and was again a star! He spent the afternoon scoffing hay! I think the mother plans to do a little shopping this weekend for him!

I am really pleased for DJ - and both sad and happy for you.

The message must have been bittersweet for you. Happy DJ is doing well, but sad just a tiny bit he is doing well. You were a good mommy and trained him well. Be proud of your boy.

DJ is a credit to all the work that you have done with him. He seems to have a very sound mind.

DJ is definitely any child's dream pony; he has not only the looks and talent, but the gentle personality as well. You must be so proud of him.

Wonderful! Was there every really any doubt he would do you proud, though? And he takes you with him wherever he goes.

Ah, that's one of those really happy/sad things. So glad that the family seem to love DJ (and why not, he's lovely) and he is settling well, but sad for you too. Still it's good to see that all the love you gave him and the work you did together have had such good results.

Oh it's nice that he is settling in OK. You must be proud of him for doing so good. Although it will make you miss him even more. *Great HUG*

That is no surprise! He was loved much and trained and readied for his new life. I feel for you, though.
:hugs:

I had been wondering why you were no longer posting about your rides, as I had missed this entire series of posts, about the move and DJ. I'm sad to see the two of you apart, but it looks like he found a wonderful home.

*hugs*
