the newest addition to Ballyclare… a beautiful mare rescued from auction, still in quarantine. just to be clear, this horse is NOT being mishandled. we were told she was broke (she may or may not be, she’s clearly still too shaken up from her ordeal at the auction to be comfortable with us yet), and when we realized that we wouldn’t be getting on her, we were just curious if maybe she’d been broke as a driving pony. nobody was injured (human or horse) and we’re giving her a LOT more time to settle in and learn to trust us before we try this again. nevertheless, we got some pretty hilarious footage at the end of it all.
