SuccessWith Danny. 
You may remember we bought him and another gelding over last September when you could hardly get near Danny. This was him this evening ridden by Coco. She was able to mount him from a block and passed numerous obstacles with flying colours, even got a few trots. Coco says it's like it's all coming back to him before he got so badly damaged.
She's accompanied by Greenlady on Cappuccino and E on Toby with Indre, a lovely girl come to work on the farm for the Summer (she loves horses!)

How cool is that? Coco certainly seems to have a touch of the Dr. Dolittle about her

Thought I'd update this thread with the very good news that Danny has found his forever home. The people who came to view him saw him at his worst, they couldn't get near him and Coco got a phone call asking if she could bring him in from the field. The new owners fell in love with him anyway, had a good chat to Coco about how she worked with him and he's now settled in well. Quite a cocky chap and not showing that fear and nervousness that made him so difficult.
A happy ending.

How rewarding when you get feedback from those who adopt an animal - and what a success story too.
You must all feel so proud after all they work that went into looking after him and re-homing
