It started out a sad day for a horse trainer at a Friesland stable in northern Netherlands. Yvonne Horjus, 37, who trains and cares for a beautiful, black mare who was pregnant, had not expected the equine would have such a complicated birth. The mare delivered a stillborn in late May, 2021.
Yet fortuitously, Yvonne had a friend who knew of an orphaned foal in need of a mother of his own. He was ready for adoption right away.
