A Horse’s View
Roxy’s Nephew- Newt
By the time I take horses to expos with me, I take for granted that everyone knows who they are. For me, I have been working with them so long that they feel like part of the family. Take Newt for instance. I call him Nephew Newt because his mother is a full sister to…

Dear Mom, Breakfast at 5:30 am was good. Bed time at 1:00 am was not. You have more friends than I thought you did. How did you get so many of them to come and watch us ride to your favorite song? Some of them were a little weird though, especially the one that liked…

Dear Mom, Typical horseshow day. First, you seemed nervous….which made me a little worried about you. Then, I got to watch a big TV with you and me on it. I think the camera added 100 pounds to me…do you think they can try a different angle next time? Then, you seemed all happy. I liked…

Dear Mom, A new guy moved in today. His name is Jac. It is sooooo embarrassing! You can totally tell that it is his first time at a horse show. He is all excited and annoying at the same time. I’m glad I wasn’t that immature at my first show…. Someone had to put him…

Dear Mom, I don’t know how to break this to you…but you’re wrong. No one would put bales of edible and pots of edibles around if they didn’t want horses to eat them. I missed my chance last night when you pulled me away…..I bet that mare got to eat them instead. Your pony, Louie

Dear Mom, Newt is not a cool as I thought he was. Yesterday morning I wanted to play the biting game again and all he wanted to do was sleep!! I banged my water bucket a loooonnnng time and he finally got up. I think he was mad because instead of playing with me he…

Dear Mom, This must be the Con-ger-us place again. Last year, I thought you had signed me up to be a circus horse when I saw the big blue and white tent. I really wanted to meet an elephant. It was pretty boring after you left last night. Who pays the light bill here? They…
