Arani has gone to his new home at Lynn's

Wow what a star...David came 3 times and on the 3rd lesson Arani just went onto the float as if he didn't have a care in the world. Just shows what happens when an expert handles the training when it's crucial in making sure no trauma happens in the transition from our place to Lynn's....Lynn had faithfully every day come and walked him up and down the driveway, backing him and bringing him forward. Circling him moving him sideways, taking him past things & through gaps that we thought may be an issue. Lynn's calm assurance was enough for Arani- and Danny (Arani's paddock mate and pal from Lynn's place) has always been on hand too...He has come in the float and been yarded with Arani while Lynn went through a few exercises and they hit it off straight away, so he has a friend there already....When they drove off on the float- there was no excitement and when he arrived at Lynn's he just put his head down and started eating....no trauma at all- Thanks David- this horse was the most traumatised of the whole muster originally and all the love and attention he has had since has been fantastic for him.....He couldn't have gone to a better home. To top it off Lynn's grandaughter is there for this week and she is the girl that has been working with him in the weekends etc and she will be working with him everyday for this week and off and on over the holidays...What a lucky horse....Well done Arani you beautiful boy.
