    Dodger’s soul speaks to us! When you first see Dodger at the beginning of the video, he has the look of fear and somber and almost melancholy from the rough 15 years of his life. It reminded me of Ariel when she was first brought home. Now anytime you see her eyes express youthful sweet soul❤. At the end of this video, Dodger shows that same sweetness but his eyes are now soft and saying “that’s right-I’m safe here with Shae”. Thank you Shae for saving Dodger’s life and bringing his soul back to life. ❤❤❤❤
    If I had a farmland and the ability to have horses, Dodger would be my heart horse❤

    As the year comes to a close, thank you for all your work and sharing Shae. I was attracted to your joy, barefoot horses, bitless riding, liberty, etc. I love that you give a horse time to unfold and take it step by step, you can't rush foundation. Dodger would have let you climb on him day one, but watching him unfold, his mouth heal. His neck and butt are changing as he picks up weight, I am excited for spring when he can blossom.

    I love the Gold and Red him the most. The Black saddle with the Black Bridle and Gold head band will make him stand out. He's a nice looking horse and when he is " working " he really looks good. I am anxious to see you on his back and putting him through his paces, I think he's going to be an eye catcher where ever he goes. It's so obvious that he really likes treats and can be a little testy if his treats aren't coming his way fast enough lol. I enjoy watching you so much Shae and look forward for winter being done and gone.

    I like Dodger’s way of moving. It’s maximum efficiency. I know Qtr horses can be trained to do all kinds of fancy stuff, but I can see him on trails, even long ones. I’m no expert, but his trot looks like it could go on for a long time at minimum intensity.
    He does have a bit of an Arab face, and he’s so affectionate you could imagine sharing your tent with him on a cold night!
    I like the first band with all the colors, and the gold. Not the red. Or the blue.The pink is not bad.
    The brow-bands make every horse look regal!

    Dodger is georgous and so well behaved for you. I love how you educate followers around the importance of giving new horses time to settle into their new surroundings before that first ride so it is a good experience for them. I loved the gold and red brow bands best
