Thor is my special guy. He was sick when he was born, and after a week a the Univ. of MO-Columbia Equine Clinic, a blood transfusion and a week of follow-up shots, he's healthy as an ox!  THANK YOU Univ. Of Mo-Columbia Equine Clinic!! His condition was called Allo-Immune Thrombocytopenia.    It's a rare, treatable disorder where the antibodies in the mare's colostrum attack the platelets of the foal's blood. If you'd like the whole story, feel free to email me.

Thor is also the first colt I've started from the ground up.  We're still working on some things, but we're having SO much fun!  

Thor, on his birthday!
