I have came to a decision

So I posted back in October about considering selling my 2 yr old paint filly. Well after thinking long and very hard I have came to a decision..... she is staying with me!!! I just can not let her leave me, she is basically like my child. She had a minor injury at the trainers so I rushed to her side and brought her home immediately and became mommy again to her and right then I knew she is mine and only mine. I have just recently put her back into training with a lot more creditable trainer that I can trust and we are gonna continue working on some areas in her training and maybe train for a discipline other than just a trail horse, but this time I am totally involved with my girl. Its me and her against the world and gonna have our ride off into the sunset !

I found some pics of her new and old that I attached, I love her messy "birdsnest" as I call of grain and hay lol!

lol, thanks my dad is not a big fan of horses, but he LOVES to create and build! So he designed and built the barn and designed the stalls and had them made. It is a beautiful place, but I have to say not always the most functional, but he is happy because he is proud of his vision coming to life and I am happy because I have a place for my horses !

Thanks, she is very sweet girl, but also very spoiled and thinks of herself and carries herself like a princess! She gave her trainer a run for his money today, it was sunny and decently warm here with a breeze and she was full of herself and wanted to socialize with all the other horses and not pay a bit of attention to her lesson, she is like her mama and gets those add moments !

unfortunately I have found some "trainers" are just out for the payday and could care less about the horse or the owner/rider! They will lie to your face, tell you what you wanna hear, make promises and not keep or even attempt to try and keep them, half way work the horse(if that), not treat the horse in the correct manner, take your feed you brought for your horse and feed it to their horse instead, and the list goes on...! Luckily I think I did find a really good knowledgable trainer that I really believe is gonna make the bad experience that happened before turn around and me and my girl will have a great one in the end. I am also made sure I told the trainer I was going to be present and involved(which this new trainer had np problem with), no more trainers telling me not to come around, she is my horse and my business!

She's a beautiful girl. I can see why you decided to keep her. It sounds like you've really done your homework with the new trainer, so hopefully this time it will be a much more rewarding experience for both you and your girl.

By the way, I had to second the comment made earlier - I LOVE your stalls! How beautiful!!

Thanks for all the nice comments about her, I think is is very pretty also but I am very biase! I would like to show in some type of discipline, but have no idea what! Any suggestions? Valentina's new trainer is really great and really knows horses and how to communicate with them and also communciate with the owner, so trainer, horse, and owner are all together on the same page. he has a real love and passion for horses, so it makes it a real enjoyable experience.

Good for you! She's very pretty. Looks intelligent. I have to admit I saw the stalls first too, they are very nice!! Good job dad. Glad you have found a good trainer too, I'll be searching for one next year.
