Replying to @GloriousAllianc
We were, Glory! That's why I know that @MarrkeeJ was God Sent to help us with that final clue. Now, Big Vanilla is where he should be and we now know that all 3 colts are safe and well looked after. It's been quite a journey.😊

Karen & I followed every workout, watched every race. To lose track was heartbreaking. The night we found out that Rancho Red, DV's son, was at a training facility for teaching children to ride was when @Markee reached out to help search for Big V! Thank The Good Lord for that!❤️

I'm crying right now because of the angst we went through. I had completely lost track. He was at a rehab facility in AZ as per his DC. I called they said he had left 2 months ago. That was in April when I called. DC certificate behind the time. They would NOT tell me his owner.

I ask tonight for donations to @freshstarttblc so we can continue tracking horses who go off the radar so they can find homes, just like Pie's son, Big Vanilla. This is Big V as a yearling. He's now 6. And he has an incredible life ahead of him thanks to you.
