Recently our Horse Committee made the difficult decision that it was time for Thunder to retire from the DuBois herd. She’s had trouble keeping weight on the last couple years. She needs to be in a home where she can get more regular feed and attention than we can provide.
Thursday night Thunder headed to her retirement home. She’ll be joining Magic and a couple more horses with a great family.
Thunder joined our herd in 2007 and has been a camper favorite ever since. In her early years with us she could be a bit mischievous at times, but was always especially careful when carrying younger campers.
We hope she has a long and wonderful retirement. She will definitely be missed in our barn.
It’s always hard to retire the good ones (and they are all good ones). They are worth their weight in gold!
