Dominic awoke at the crack of dawn and started preparing breakfast for eveyone as a way of saying thank you. "Mmm that smells amazing Dominic" Georgie commented as she entered the kitchen bright and early. "Well it's the least I could do to say thank you" Dominic replied, "Well if your in the spirits of helping out, maybe you could give me a hand with that mare today" Amy said as she entered the room. "Sure if you think it will help" Dominic replied happy to lend a hand in anyway possible. The rest of the family entered the kitchen suprised to have breakfast all ready for them to eat before they start their busy day's. 

Dominic left the house with Amy and headed towards the barn to start working on the problem that Amy has with the mare however despite what happened the othe day Dominic had no confidence at all yet alone any clue on how he could help. "Okay I can tell your nervous Dominic but your gonna be fine just do what I tell you to" Amy stated clearly. "Ok" Dominic nodded. "First order of business is that she isn't willing to eat anything at all, I want you to see if you could get her to eat this mixture of food it will help heal her injuries" Amy asked calmly. Dominic nodded and approached the mare nice and slow not wanting to be injured in anyway possible from her. Thoughts of love and kindness from his family filled his mind as he placed the bucket near the horses mouth praying that it would work and suprising himself it did work the mare dived straight in eating the mixture. 

"step one complete" Amy said, "Now I want you to link up with her as she seems to trust you" Amy stated. "Link up?" Dominic asked with passion. "Oh yeah sorry, you just control her movements around the paddock with your body movements then turn your back on her and she should walk up to you that will symbolise she's ready to link up.", "Ok, I think I understand what your saying" Dominic replied with confidence. Feelings of pride and confidence washed over Dominic as he linked up with the mare perfectly allowing the vet to get close and exam her injuries without anymore problems. "That was amazing Dominic thank you" Amy said with a friendly tone. After helping out Amy, Dominic headed back to the house in order to collect his things and go back to his home. Part of Dominic really didn't want to leave as he was afraid of the consqences that he will face from his parents.

Dominic was packing up his things when he heard Jack yelling on the phone with someone, Eavesdropping on the conversation Dominic found out that it was his mother and father and that Jack wanted Dominic to come and work part time at the ranch as a ranch hand. His face lit up with glee as he would love to be at heartland so much but he also wondered what it would be like to be away from his parents for so long. Jack then came off the phone and approached Dominic and give him the news.
