Bye Naziri. Off to his new home today. Will miss you

[Arabmare]

:'( :'( :'( :'(

I'm going to cry today. Naz is off to live the life of riley in Ireland with my parents in law. They have there own land and stables. He has a stable being built for him now ready for winter as they have much colder wetter winters than here.

I'm going to miss him so much. He has come on leaps and bounds. So friendly lovable quiet and soppy. Not like a stallion at all!

He started life full of love and happiness then went downhill when he was sold as a foal with his mum. God knows where she is now but he was found disgusting. Anyway you all know the story.

Here he is in pictures as his life with us progressed.

The first time we saw him. We were worried about his legs, hoped we were not taking on too much of a case that needed vets attention! But we couldn't not have him.
