What a Mother’s Day weekend.
 
Because of your support during auction weekend, these three mares are safe tonight:
 
— A bay roan mare with her approximately week-old filly at side
— A very pregnant Percheron cross mare
— A giant Shire cross mare who looks VERY close to foaling
 
And now we need names!
 
For the mare and filly pair, we’d love names that go together — think Lorelai & Rory, Rose & Pearl, or Molly & Dolly. Famous mother/daughter pairs would be great!
 
For the pregnant mares, we’d love:
— a name for the mare
— a filly name suggestion
— and a colt name suggestion
 
Think something like Loretta, with Waylon or Patsy for the foal. Maeve/Flynn/Molly, or Duchess/Duke/Tess, even Georgia/Savannah/Memphis!
 
Bonus points if the names fit their personalities or breeds!
