The colt that convinced us not to give up breeding

[targetsmom]

I am not sure how many have been following our breeding misfortunes that culminated in a horrible experience over Memorial Day weekend. After three years with no live foals, we posted on here that we were giving up breeding. And then 5 days later (May 29) we had an incredible miracle birth from a maiden mare at 303 days gestation. This is that colt, Max, at 4 days of age. He is everything we could possibly have hoped for and has convinced us that we should not give up our dream. We plan to repeat this cross for next year!!

By the way, we are also looking for a registered name for Max, going along with the "On Target" theme and his sires's name (SRF Buckshot). His dam is Jones Call Me Blue Admiration, a Cross Country Call Me Awesome daughter out of a Blue Boy bred mare. Our prefix is OTM.

I am so happy for you. Sometimes, there is light at the end of a tunnel and you surely found the light.

I can't help but thinking after what you've been through,

OTM "My Heart Will Go On" might seem fitting
