Hello Joyce,

I just wanted to update you on “Power”, aka “Thunder” in our barn and his amazing progress. You probably saw all the media attention several months ago, given for a local  pregnant girl, Jessie Davis, who was kidnapped and killed by her police officer boyfriend. Jessie lived a mile from our home. My daughter and I searched the local fields and woods for several days before Equisearch arrived. After their arrival, Equisearch dispatched us where needed and other local riders helped. On Friday of that week, a equine search and rescue team from the Columbus area arrived and joined our efforts. Unfortunately, Jessie was not to be found alive, but the outpouring of concern from so many was uplifting. Thunder was wonderful. He took the media in stride including pushy camera men, generators, crowds, and all the racket involved in such a big effort. He navigated areas that he had never seen before, and performed with other less behaved animals. When the team from Columbus found out he was only 3 years old, they could not believe it. We headed our own group with a radio constantly buzzing from one leader to another. He was an awesome animal for any age. His youth is what made him exceptional. He did what ever was asked of him. Thank you for breading such a wonderful animal. You hear of people experiencing a “once in a life time animal”. Well I found mine. Thank you again.
