Ugly Duckling to a Swan...

I brought my new horse home in April, in less than top condition to say the least. It is amazing what some good feed and love can do....

Then.....

Thank you! I did not realized how much she has improved until another boarder commented on it today, and I just had to come home and compare the photos.

What a transformation. You can tell by the look in her eye she feels much better about herself.
