After 7 weeks of absence Tocqgold and his mother Tocqueville have returned home! They were supposed to be gone for 3 weeks but as the mother fell ill everything had to be delayed. We picked them up in Bretagne 4 hours drive!
It's very important at this age to establish a good contact with the foal to be able to teach it everything it needs to know and it are the roots for the rest of his training to become a racehorse. To be certain he had not forgotten me I wore the same trousers I wore during his birth (never washed them), this way he remembers you by the scent. This worked wonderfully well even touching as he body against me and around me and was more then happy to see me.
We are all very happy (including the other horses) they are back and he has grown so much!
