horses are like fine wine
My old man Zahtar is thirty-one today! He and Merlin are my only registered horses, and I love having an official birthday to celebrate. My entire business is THIS PONY'S FAULT and nine years later, he is still cantering up hills, popping over little crossrails and plodding around with the beginners. He is also above insulting devices such as halters - he can turn himself out and come in for dinner quite fine on his own, thank you very much.
We should all be so spoiled and full of life at his age.
