The Equine Picture at LFF Has Changed!



Well, my brother said, "I wouldn't have believed that I would live long enough to see you without a horse." That's not entirely an accurate statement. Lucy needed a home where someone can work with her daily, and I am not that person. So to that end, I took her to Jennifer Ohmes in AL to sell her. She is doing well there, and has some interested parties. So when Nancy was put down, that left Lucy alone. She had a gelding friend who was a loaner from my friend, Betsy. So when I found out about a free burro named Theodore, he became her new best friend. But when I took her to be sold, Theo was alone. Another friend of mine told me about another burro who needed a new home, so off I went on another adventure, complete with a trip across the Cumberland River on a ferry with trailer in tow to pick up my second burro, who's name then was Nick. That name does not fit him, so since he is rosy in color and my other burro was named Theodore, Nick has become Roosevelt! Laughing Fox Farm is now "braying burro farm" (not really, but it works given the situation)! Introducing (drum roll please)...Roosevelt!

The LFF Menagerie



The current menagerie at LFF: Gracie, Trio, Theodore, Duchess and Lucy.

Theodore the Burro



This is Theodore the Burro. My friend, Lynne and I picked him and her new mini horse up last Wednesday. He is considered a mini (about 36" at the withers), and is so sweet. Lucy has become totally attached to him, ought to be interesting when I take her trail riding. He's a cutie and very entertaining. Welcome Theodore!

Nancy's Angel



It's bound to happen that when we have pets we usually outlive them, but having to have Nancy euthanized on December 8, 2011 was more painful that I had imagined. Thank you, Nancy for teaching me how to hunt, patience, compassion, and disipline. You were my partner in hunting and there will never be another you.
