Kettlesnout Shetland Pony Stud has some frolicking foal action going on—most recently, "Bambi" and "Cinderella" the knobbular foals who are obviously part stuffed animal.
Bambi and Cindi are spoken for, but Kettlesnout expects more foals this year. More miniature redonkulousness at the Gallery! Thanks to Sender-Inner Andrea ;)
Meet Hercules: Ancient hero... blood donor... draft horse... impressionist?
Hercules lives right down the road from me, more or less, at the U of M's College of Veterinary Medicine. About a month ago, Herc helped raise funds for the U's new Equine Center in unique fashion -- by creating hoofprint paintings as gifts to the (human) donors (of money).
The imposing palomino isn't limited to prints, though--he's been receiving instruction on his brush technique. This is a university, after all.
Here's what I'd like to see, though: For your next fundraiser, tack a plain canvas dropcloth to the wall, line up a couple of paintbuckets in front of it on a sawhors... um, some kind of support... then have Hercules give 'em each a nice solid kick. Et voila: Jackson Paddock.
Pup in front: To join the Backyard Club, you must first go through our test. Horse: [Shivers] Kitteh: [yawns] Pup in front: You must jump on this trampoline fifteen times exactly, jump off, go to the kitchen and get us Cokes. Then we will decide if you can join us.
According to sender-inner Kate S., The Backyard Club is from left to right: Skeeter (OMG PONIES!1!!), Hannah, Jackie, Abby (she has edible ears!) and in the back pretending not to be interested, Stanley.
Um. This is beyond weird, People, it's like disco dressage—with ridiculous commentary. [shaking head] After Christopher Guest does a Hedgehog party, he should tackle this...
From Yahoo News / AP: ST. LOUIS - At just a hair over 17 inches tall, the miniature horse is
more inclined to walk under fences than jump them. And her owners have
sheltered the mare from ever gaining "circus-sideshow" or
"one-trick-pony" status. As the world's smallest horse, 5-year-old
Thumbelina, weighing in at 57 pounds, has a bigger mission: to raise $1
million for children's charities this year.
Listen up Peeps, I'm being mimicked perfectly by sender-inner Jacquelyn W. She writes:
"Moms eeees using bebeh poneee as a piiiiiiiiillow! Momma ees all "Better than memory foam!" And bebeh ees all "Ehn! Ehn!! Can't mooooooof! Can't moooozzzzzzzzzzzzzz..."
Isn't it funny how animals don't look each other in the eye, really? Maybe only humans do, maybe only humans really recognize each other. It's like this photo, where the kittehs are "yaahm"ing away on their lollipop, not looking at each other. Same is happening here—the horse and puppeh are all "snort!" and "ew!!!" respectively, and not looking each other in the eye.
That puppeh is totally freaking out man! Thanks to Lori S. ;)
First of all, this clearing/meadow/back yard tewtelly looks like a Ranger Rick poster, like there should be a caption at the bottom that says "Working Together!" on it. The kind of poster on the wall in third grade. Radical!
Apparently, this fawn wandered out to make the scene even better. Have you ever seen a smaller fawn? Didn't thiiiink so! [singsong]
You know that horse is all "git out the way" and the fawn is all "I shall mimic your grazing pattern!"
I think I'm cruisin' for a C.O. coma...Amy M., call the DOCTAH!
This lil' Dude is raring to go. He's the newest member of Walking Horse Farms, home of Giant Steps Therapeutic Riding Center. Imagine the tiniest monkey jockey—hi ya! I love how the teeny hooves are turned in *just so*.
Listen up, you Punks. I'm out to pasture, OK!? I don't want to play your silly, "funny [makes quote marks with hooves] games",OK?
I'm here to relax after a LONG career of working hard, OK? So take these GLOVES OFF MY HEAD.
This is so redonk, I hadta post. He's hopping around like Pepe le Peu in love. I know this little dude doesn't have
his hooves up*, but perhaps he could be an honorary member of the 'YAY!'
pic?!
Meet "Koby" the baby horse who appears to be just another red-blooded American, enjoying his oscillating fan on a Sunday afternoon. Below, he's all "Let's play Shadow of the Collossus, Uncle Frank!"...
and then his Momma yells "Koooooby! wash your hooves for supper!
"Oh and Hon, take your clean clothes into the bedroom. I warshed 'em today."
This magical, floral-printed home brought to you by Koby's Mom.
