Belle Updates

Well Belle went to see Dr. Dennis on Wednsday
Had to have her girlie examination for breeding
Poor baby, she came home to Southwind all bowlegged LOL
Next month, all things going the way they should Miss Bizzy Bee is going to be bred to the handsome Lost!
Remember I told you a little about the Prince of the Princess Diaries?
Here's the kind of beautiful baby he sires:

The Temptress:

As you can see she is very pretty. I am hoping when we go down to TX to visit before Belle's return home that we'll get some new pics of Lost's daughter!

We have decided on the maternity/foaling home for Belle...once she is safely in foal we are shipping her just north of us to Rooker Training Center, in Fenton, Michigan.

They have great facilities, an on staff vet and farrier and also a broodmare/foaling manager. All huge pluses. I think I'm going to ask them if I can foal watch with thier manager a few times to get the hang of things! I know I am welcome when Belle's time comes ...I don't think there will be enough tissues in the world really lol.

A favorite family photo taken by a great photographer, Caryn Henry, of Wisconsin:


And one more pic of The Apostolos, dear Belle's soon to be "husband" heehee, with his owner, Summer of Southwind Arabians :-)


AS you can see this should be a very pretty foal in 2007! :-)

TaTa for Now
