For the Love of a Horse

Hi everyone!  I found a beautiful short video on horses that I hope you will all enjoy as much as I have.  I am so happy that animals are used to help others, such as the sick, the disabled and the elderly.  They offer unconditional love and can teach us so much!

The photo I am sharing today is one that I took on Friday.  Even though this horse was running inside a very large enclosure for exercise, he came up to see me and allowed me to pet him and take his photo.  :)  You just need to click on the image to see a larger view.

Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I really appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share by clicking on the 'comments' link at the end of my post.

  1. I had a horse for about 12 years. I eventually got rid of the horse to make it easier to keep my first wife. Turns out I got it backwards. I still love horses!

  5. If you love horses, you should come visit Ocala sometime. This is horse country with hundreds of large and small horse farms - many of which are right in the city, set among rolling hills with huge oak trees. We raise racing horses here, as well as jumping horses.

    A friend of ours just bought a "mini" farm and he plans to have two horses just for fun and riding. Lots and lots of mini-farms.

    Just down the road from where we live are a half-dozen horse farms.

    They are wonderful animals.

  9. We too love horses. They somehow soothe the soul. I used to ride, but never owned a horse. My daughter had 2. Now that she's married and has a daughter, they own 3. One is a rescue horse... and he's a gorgeous huge Friesian who was abused when young. He will probably never be able to be ridden, but he does trust them and follows the 2 of them around like a puppy.
