I just read this post... and am so glad to hear that Jodi's mare is doing better. What wonderful photos of your daughter with her horses! As a Youth and Amateur trainer, I really enjoyed the photos of your daughter, she has beautiful, natural balance with her horses... (that photo of her turning the barrel on her mare is breathtaking...) as that mare is REALLY digging the ground on that turn, she looks to have the talent to not only be Nationals bound in the Miniature world, but also on the larger horse circuits as well....
I have no doubts that her mare DOES pick up at the sight, sound and smell of Jodi.. they sound like they have a very close bond that really will help that mare heal.... also SO very glad to hear that things are picking up for her in finding her pony and the wonderful gift of the weanling...
My best wishes and prayers are with you....
