Update on my sister's horse purchase in Ireland back in February.Hope she checked into the quarantine expenses here in the states before she pulled the trigger.
It turned into quite the fiasco like most things do these days.
It took forever to get a vet in Ireland to examine the horse before okaying its export.
Then there was a long wait to get the horse boarded for passage.
Turns out the pony had to be shipped to Belgium first and then put on a special plane.
The plane landed at JFK airport and was then taken and quarantined upstate for a few days until my sister from PA could get a trailer to go up and get it.
Everything ended up fine.
But then last week my sis got bucked from her other horse and broke her wrist and collarbone.
Every time I think about her getting on a horse I think about how Christopher Reeves ended up.
I'm a worrier. Always have been.
