I need more hair....

Why I do not grow a winter coat well I dunno. Human wonders if  it has to do with one of the many types of horses I have in me. Apparently I'm quite a mix!
My brother Benny looks like a bare already, he's fuzzy and warm. Me I'm shaking in my stall and it isn't even winter yet. 
We did get snow though and it was freezing so my human pulled out the polar fleece blankets. Benny has a black one, Beauty's is bright blue, and I........... I have a TIGER PRINT ONE. No idea what my human was thinking when she got me a tiger print one.  If I could roll my eye's I would! My Human keeps saying it fits my personality?? Even though I look ridiculous I am now nice and toasty at night. Trying to enjoy the last little bit of time naked outside.
Blacksmith comes tomorrow will try and fling him harder this time!

Happy Thanksgiving




Well it's Thanksgiving which means bran mash and carrots for us today! Love holidays since we always get a special mash. Christmas is my favorite though, I get candy canes!

There is this new "thing" in my barn. My human calls it a sheep/Girlie. It is so loud and follows are human everywhere. Benny and I think its a monster, Beauty doesn't though apparently she used to have a goat as a friend.  She goes out side with us and try's to climb the round bale. 

Next door to us they have put out some cows, Benny lost his mind. I didn't mind the cows but the Donkey freaked me right out. The ears on that guy are huge!!!!!!!!!! He's louder then Girlie.

My human's work decided to have its staff Halloween their pets to put on the board at work.  Benny wasn't to impressed, but me surprising I LOVED IT. However when I kept trying eat the camera I fogged up her camera, so I have steamed up pictures. hee hee.


Well must get back to my bale, can't let that sheep eat all my hay!

What's In A Name?

Well my human has decided to Microchip my brother and I. Now we get to have fancy names to go with our Microchip and Passports. Apparently my human wants to enter in to a show in the spring with me. 

I quite like my name Cody, better then my first name. Not sure what my human will call me. Will be sure to let you know!

Any ideas?!?!

New Trick...

I love to crash flat out in my stall at night to sleep. You can hear me snore from the house if your outside some nights. 

But yesterday I discovered a new way to keep my stall much more clean. Since I only have a half door to my stall, I can easily poop over the door.

Left a mountain of poop for my human this morning. Now just have to teach Benny and Beauty!

How I got my human....





Fall is here, summer is over. In just a few weeks my mom will have had me a entire year. It's hard to believe I went from being someones transportation, to a riding horse.  I still remember the first time I met my human.

My human had gone through a horrible loss, during a move her gelding was being looked after by a friend of the family. She was constantly told he was fine, until the day she went to get him. When she got there she found out he had been given away!  When the person who had him was found, even after hearing what had happened they refused to give him back.  My human was devastated. The family friend wouldn't even tell her why they did such a thing other then, who the gave him to loved him and wanted him badly after seeing him at their farm.  My human tried everything, police, pleading but to no avail.  She lost complete faith in everyone she had trusted, and the justice system.

She spent weeks in tears, and could barely make it through her work with out crying when a client asked how her horse was (she was just starting her first year out of school as a vet so was dealing with horses everyday).  The barn she had gotten ready for him, she couldn't even go near.  She had lost her best friend and worried constantly about how he was (he was 26).  

After my old human found out what had happened (he had helped my human get the barn ready), he felt horrible but had an idea.  He was going to take me to auction since he didn't want me anymore, but felt I might be just what my new human needed. So his kids brushed me up and took me down the road to put me right in the barn. He made sure the water bucket was full and gave me some hay.  I was given a pat and told this was my new home, and to be a very good boy. On her kitchen door he left my papers signed over to my new human and a note that said "from one horse lover to another".

A little while later my human came racing in to the barn in tears. I was a little confused as nothing was wrong but she was crying.  She spent the rest of the day feeding me carrots and apples. Soon other humans  came to see me even my old human! I was apparently very popular now.

Over the last few months I've leaned how to be a riding horse, that horse cookies are yummy, polo's must be bright colours, and there is no one in this world that loves me more then my human. 

This my horsey friends is how I got my human!

My Human Spoiled All Me Fun!


Nothing like taking a fence down and running a muck. If my human hadn't come out to see why Benny was carrying on, our adventure would of lasted longer.

Beauty and I were able to break through a fence and go exploring. Unfortunately Benny wasn't smart enough to follow us. He did how ever sound the alarm and start screaming for my human. (I intend to bite him as much as I can today!).

Lets just say my human lost it when she saw us running around. They did catch us very quickly mainly because I'm to much of a sissy to cross the creek. I hate water!

When I went out this morning I ran right to our escape root. Only to find my humans went over the fence and added extra rails and rebuilt the fence where we knocked it down. Tried pushing it for a while, and made sure that was the spot we got out a couple times. There goes all my fun.

So now I'm stuck in my paddock with nothing to do but eat...... and maybe a game of halter tag!
