Autumn Trail (2013)
“The farrier was coming to put new shoes on some of the horses, including Starlight, and she didn’t want to miss a thing.
Carole never passed up an opportunity to learn about anything having to do with horses. She already knew that she wanted to work with horses when she grew up, although she hadn’t yet decided whether she would train them, own them, heal them, ride them, or all of the above.
In the meantime she wanted to learn everything she could about every aspect of horse care. It was easy f...or her to find a lot of opportunities to do so, mostly because there was a lot to learn. There were the everyday tasks that every rider at Pine Hollow was supposed to help out with, such as feeding and grooming and cleaning tack. There were the unexpected situations when a horse was injured or became sick. Carole had spent some time acting as an assistant to the local veterinarian, Judy Barker, and she had learned a lot that way about what a vet does. Finally, there were things like shoeing, which might seem a little boring to some people, but which Carole knew were important to keeping a horse healthy and happy.MoreLess
