Gary's Dad had knee replacement surgery two weeks ago and is having a rough recovery. On Sunday we gave Boss (our 25 1/2 inch tall stallion) a bath and put him in the horse trailer to go to Baba's house. When we got there I put two pairs of Walmart high top baby shoes (one pair had been modified slightly) on Boss and in we went. Boss led right into a 2 foot wide space crowded with stuff to visit his Baba. He was incredibly gentle, laying his head on the bed next to Gary's Dad on several occasions. Although we put a towel under his back end, he never offered to mark his territory at all. It was as if he knew the situation and exactly what Baba needed. The neat part is that Baba has started to feel much better and even spent a good part of the day out of bed today.
Boss has been shown locally and won a few first place ribbons but this is definately what it is all about.
