In light of the ‘happenings’ on the BB this afternoon, I must admit that at first I just sat there staring at the computer screen like a dummy, quite disturbed. When I went out to the barn later, I began to think about my own horses, and I took great comfort in knowing that I’ve done my best to care for my own horses so that they could lead a happy life. It was a subject I mulled over for quite a while because in the past two weeks my horse has lost some weight, so lately I have spent more time than normal second-guessing myself.
So anyway, I thought maybe now would be a good time to take a moment and think about how lucky our own horses are that they have loving owners to care for them (with the means to take care of them). I don’t know exactly what the point of my post was, except that I figured I would share, since it was gratifying to think of all the fortunate horses out there with their sweet feed, alfalfa, supplements, plentiful water, clean stalls, turnout, daily exercise, and caring owner, rider, vet, acupuncturist, dentist, and trainer. For some horses seem to not have these luxuries…
