Happy birthday to our dear boy, Dagur 🎉🎂🥳🎈we are so lucky that he came into our life 12 years ago and made us parents for the first time. We are so grateful for all the things he has taught us and all the adventures we have had. We can’t wait for all the upcoming adventures. It’s a privilege to be around his imagination, interest in all things in life and humor 🫶🏼

You’ll be missed our dear friend Hæringur 🤍 thank you for all the memories and laughs when you showed your big character by pushing us humans and other horses in the herd around… one of a kind that’s impossible to replace, over 25 good years traveling the highlands and being the smoothest horse to ride in Hekluhestar history. Alfa horse all your life and Alfa in our hearts all our life 🤍

This is Finna 🤍 She loves speed in all gates, she even walks fast 💨 She also loves her best friend Gjóska. They are always together in the herd in winter and in the riding tours in summer. We try to respect relationship between the horses and for example they went together on a break to meet up with a stallion and have foals few years ago. Now their daughters (Hekla and Katla) grew up together and are best friends too 🤍
