Muffin, poor Muffin. She came to the rescue over a year ago rescued by a bystander who happened to see her and 2 others with no feed or water in a farmers yard. They offered to buy them and immediately turned them over to us. Muffin was so terrified of people and impossible to catch. She was adopted but shortly thereafter given back for that reason. Though she was happy to give rides to the kids, she was just too hard to catch.
She came back to us and we continued to work with her but she did not seem to come around very much. She was adopted again to a family with kids who wanted to ride her. Again she gave rides but was too hard to catch. She again came back to us at the rescue. It seemed poor Muffin was just not very placable.

What to do in your spare time? How about train a wild mini? That's what Joan did. Joan adopted Merlin who came to us more pony size than mini. He had never been handled and was very wild and impossible to catch. Joan said she would take him and work with him. Well, what a match or maybe Joan is super talented (which is my guess).
After working with him and getting him to like to be be caught, she went out and bought herself a harness and small cart. The rest is history. After just a few months I think the photos speak for themselves. Way to go Joan and Merlin (now Boomer)!

My minis arrived at Triple H April 1, 2009 in a snow storm from Paris, Arkansas. There were 14 minis, all malnourished. Subiaco, estimated to be 5 years old, was very close to foaling. Even with extra care from Alison, Steve, and HHH, there wasn’t enough time and after 3 weeks she lost her foal.
