I fell in love with his picture. And then I saw him and rode him and it was all over.
"Just pay the lady."
Then we got him home and I realized how little he was--his chest was as skinny as Indy's!
But when we turned him loose and he ran away in fear, I called his name and he came running back to me. He stole my heart right then.
He knows the sound of a camera and how to pose and show off his good side for sure.Shirley calls him "Little Lord Fauntleroy".
But when everyone else is complaining about their boring horses--I am not. For all his "perfectness" he is a pistol who keeps me on my toes.
He's kind of a big scaredy cat, but loves to be in the lead and charge uphill. He's surefooted on the trail (except when he stumbles!).
Although it feels like much longer, we've been partners for five years now. He's filled out to be the perfect Morgan specimen--even if he's on the round side. :)
Happy 10th birthday, Jupiter!
I look forward to many more years on the trail with you.
Yes, just pay the lady, It was love at first site , brat that he is. Maybe it's because he is just about perfect for you. Match made in heaven. :)
