Uno Don Diego x Galearites SSF

Meet Whiskers.  This lovely, large girl is carrying a special embryo.  Uno Don Diego x Totilas x Jazz!  Thanks to KC Dunn for her never-ending support and friendship, thanks to Dr. Deme Erickson from TNT Equine in North Berwick, ME, for the successful flush, thanks to Meghan DeGaray and Iron Spring Farm for all they do for North American breeders, thanks to Dr. Foss and his team at Equine Medical Services for a successful transfer, thanks to Jane Hannigan for her support and willingness to give Mazey a bit of a break, and, most importantly, thanks to Carol Tolman for believing we should give it one more try.  Fingers crossed for a happy ending to this story.
