Every horse you have a connection with can be a heart horse, right? I mean, I could call Pig my heart horse. I love him dearly, but I wouldn't say that I wouldn't love any other horse I've been through as much with just as much. Yes? No? Maybe it would help if my horse was more affectionate... ;)Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004088333430762406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-48872592946514445302015-07-15T04:45:34.551-07:002015-07-15T04:45:34.551-07:00Awww, what a great background story!
