Ghost's Story

Dear Country N Christian,
This year I have had the opportunity of volunteering at a stable. There I met a wonderful horse named Ghost. Ghost got a second chance and has found a new home now. I have created a video to remember him by and I will also post his story. I hope you guys like it!

Ghost is a Palamino Missouri Fox Trotter.  When I first started going to the Stables I had hoped to work with a horse just as Amy Fleming does in Heartland (it's a Canadian TV Drama). The first day, I walked into the stable and noticed one horse. There was something about him that made him my favorite but I couldn't tell what. All the horses were nice but this one...there was just something about him. A few weeks into volunteering, the stable manager asked me which was my favorite horse and I answered Ghost. He's been my favorite ever since. I got to feed him a carrot one time but the biggest part of his story is when we started training together. I don't know too much of Ghost's past but I do know he was very skittish. He wouldn't let anyone touch his head and mane. It took a few weeks before we could get near his mane at all, we can even pet his head! I asked the owner of the Stables (who also owned Ghost) if I could start training with him because they said he needed someone to spend time with him and she said yes. I started out grooming him every week. Then one day he wasn't feeling too well so I got to walk him around on a lead rope, he really loved it! After a while we had a schedule, I would groom him and then lead him around for a while. I would make sure he didn't go ahead of me while we walked (I was the one leading not him). I have even gotten to ride him twice! I was a bit scared too but I think it helped us both bond with each other. A few bites and trust earned, and now he is with a new family! He got adopted a few weeks ago. I don't know the family but I believe Ghosty Boy is happy and safe. We both had things to learn like how to trust each other and not be so afraid. He's gone with a different family now and we both have great things to come! The best is yet to come
