Lorraine's Story

Hey y'all! I decided to tell you the story of Lorraine. So here it is!
A contractor was doing the last check through a house his crew was about to knock down in Texas and looked in a closet and found Lorraine hairless and pregnant. He picked her up and took her to the vet. She licked his arm the hole car ride. Three days later she gave birth to six puppies. Sadly only four lived. And two died.  They said she cried when they took the puppies away. After that a old women fostered her for a few months. The women could not take care of her for long. So they called Best Friends Animal Society. "BFAS" It is a non profit society that go's around the USA and saves animals. Like horses, dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and so much more! There motto is "Save Them All" You can volunteer at any BFAS locations! We went to Utah last summer and volunteer and fell in love with Lorraine! The care takers had put Lorraine in a kennel because they said she was being rambunctious! They told my family that after we cleaned her run we could let her out. So we let her out and went to clean the other runs. After we were done they said we could say hello to a few dogs if we wanted. We went back to Lorraine's run to see her run mate Buddy. He had unformed eyes and had trouble seeing. So we went into the run to read to him. Lorraine would not go unnoticed! She was digging at my mama's pocket to try and get treats! She even knocked me down giving me kisses! :) We also noticed the she had a limp. When we left she went out side and looked at my daddy in the car. My daddy was not sure what to do. So he did two things, one he asked the landlords to see if it was ok. Then he put a adoption form for Lorraine. After a few nervous days to the landlords said... YES!!! We were so excited! So the next day we went to the four corners then off to BFAS! When we made it to BFAS Lorraine pulled the trainer all the way to where we were standing! She was jumping and her tail was waging like crazy! It was like she had known all along that we were going to take her home! Then we jumped in the car to go home! She has a great personality and is so crazy! I am so glad she is apart of my family and that my family gave her a second chance at life! 


Lorraine loves the beach!
Life is great!



Can I have some?!



I love smiling! 


I love you!


Horseback Riding

Hi y'all! If you read my last blog you know I love horseback riding! It is so much fun! I am doing a riding show this Friday! And I can not wait! It will be my first riding show. I have been taking lessons for a little over a year. Right now I am working on my canter. For my warmup I am doing half seat, sitting the trot, double posting, and posting, each way, all at the trot. I also have to tighten the girth and check the stirrups. Then mount after a tack check were my teacher checks the girth. I'm not aloud to trot until everyone has mounted. Then you do the warmup. After the end of the lesson since my class is the last lesson of the day we have to untack the horses we rode during the lesson. I enjoy doing it. It is one of my favorite days of the week! It is the one day each week I get to ride and be around horses! I am hoping one day I will own my own horse! The horse's name would be Willow. My teacher gives me a different horse each week. Some of my favorites are Elmo, Rey, and my first favorite Raider! Raider is a Palomino horse. I love horses and hope you do too! Thanks for reading!
Bye!
