This morning a lone Canadian goose flew over my pond, calling loudly- back and forth, and again. I wondered if she had lost her mate, or worse. Heart-felt goose sympathy…

If you have read my blog, I think it is pretty obvious how I feel about animals, and especially horses. To be clear- any horse, any mustang, any donkey, any pony. And then- any age, any breed, any challenge. Of course- any place, any time. Finally- any equine not already mentioned.

Our animals hand us the winning ticket dozens of times a day.

But you have to be present to win.… Continue

As it turns out, Pickles is no ordinary horse. With a little research, we learned that her grandfather sired Kentucky Derby winner Foolish Pleasure.



So our starved, neglected horse has the blood of a champion in her veins. Maybe that's why she has this quiet sort of class about her.



Every day when we watch and work on her, she finds a way to tell us something new about herself and what she's been through.



Today we finished shaving the hair off most of her rain… Continue
