Teddy, my dwarf is four years old today! (I know, I know. A dwarf....)

Teddy was born Saturday April 28th, 2007 at 5:00pm AND 7:00pm. Yep, he was born twice.

You see, Teddy's dam went into labor around 5pm. My parents were gone on their Harley across the state, and the vet was fishing. So, I was home alone with my older brother with nobody to call. Teddy's dam was in active labor for two hours before my parents arrived home. The only reason little Teddy was alive was the fact that during the entire time his nose was out, and he was breathing good ol' Iowa spring time air. My parent's arrived home and my dad delivered him. Let's just say I had since shunned the Harley.

Teddy, was SUCH a goober when he was a baby. After weaning time he mellowed down, considerably.

It wasn't until this year, after starting him on Purina's Strategy that we discovered that our goober of a boy had a personality. Now, he will race the yearlings across the pasture at a full sprint with his tail in the air!

So, I would love to introduce my boy, Teddy.

Oh, and just so you know, 3 legged leg warmers are in this year.

You can see my FB album for him here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/fbx/?set=a.104959029590648.15484.100002296543466&l=659bfa2864
 
Awww what a sweetie! Neat story too-not often a foal will last that long.
 
Thanks. He was a fighter.

We fed him with a syringe for about three days because his dam was in shock. She was cramping and being a maiden didn't help any.

Also, at a couple days (or weeks?) a mare of ours kicked

him. The blow hit his front left knee and left a scar. Although he was okay; just scared. Needless to

say the mare was sold.

He's been accident and drama free since then!
 
Happy Birthday for yesterday sweet Teddy - hope your Mum spoilt you rotten on your special day (bet she did!)
