My name is Buddy and I live at Eagle Point Farm in Ashland, Virginia. I have lived at the farm for most of the 12 years of my life. Oh, by the way, I am a black Labrador Retriever (except I don’t retrieve). You might remember me from last years Christmas Card.

One day Karen and Donna were talking about the fact that many clients are surprised by their first visit to Eagle Point. They seem to always mention they had no idea how beautiful and functional the land and facilities are and how much of an advantage the horses have here. After much discussion the girls then turned to me, I mean who else knows so much about this place and could show the farm off from such a unique perspective? They told me to go around the farm and take pictures and explain things so people could get a better idea of the farm. They are even giving me my own page on their website so I can keep everyone updated! So please join me as I take you through an introduction of both old and new things about the farm. You can page thru my journal entries, or go to my photo gallery, happy browsing.

Buddy.

I am in charge of the sofa in the tack room but on warm sunny days I check out the activities on the farm as they are always working on something. This time of year it is breaking season.

Some days I will even venture to one of the two big eighty acre fields where the young horses are turned out. I’m tired when I return since there are many hills to climb, which I guess is good for building muscles and wind. I grew up doing this and now I’m big and strong even at my old age! In the summer it is fun .....    more >>
