So in my last post I mentioned that I had more animals that didn't live with me anymore. They stayed behind on my parents ranch.
First up is my miniature horse Cupcake. Her registerd name is Smallworld Trudy. She stands at a only 34 inches high. She was a birthday gift for my birthday 5 almost 6 years ago. I had been begging for a mini. I'm pretty sure she had been asking for her own human too. She is twenty something years old. She does a number of tricks, is a master at in hand trail, and making me laugh. She and I love to go for walks when I'm at home. She loves PJ sandwiches and granola bars. She will do an anything for food.Cupcake is a huge fan of kids. She went to fair this past year as my solo horse. It was blast. Holly Haddenham [My mom] tells me all the time, "She misses you." (Haddenham, H. personal communication,2018. ), I miss my girl so much and would do anything to have her on this side of the mountains with me. "Heart horses are once-in-a-lifetime matches that feel as if they were made just for us. " 2016,para. 2). Cupcake is one of those special matches for me.
My other horses is Cody . He is a paint gelding with a health dose of thoroughbred blood through in there. I've known him since he was a yearling when a friend bought him. However he didn't come to live with us for a long time after that. First she moved and left him the care of family. They starved him (I guess they didn't know how to take care off a horse). This treatment ruined his once amazing mane. She called us up on day and told us to go get him. So we did. He went off to training then put friend had him for the summer. Tragedy struck when my gelding had to be retired form showing, my choices where my mom's horse while we tried to sell him or him. I wasn't going to get a new horse through if I didn't ride him. So Cody and I embarked on our great adventure. We have chased things, jumped and rode miles of trail. He is a endurance horse at heart. He and I haven't been working together as hard as we should have the past few years. He can be a tick bit on the interesting side under saddle.
They also have care of some of my older rabbits. They are my polish They are Sweetbairs Ace aka Pepper and Agua Mist or Agua. Agua is mom to my polish I have with me here.

Sadly one of them has passed away, my English lop rabbit. This monster was nicknamed Kodiak. his formal name was Kathy's Scamp. He was one of my good friends first English lops. His legacy will remain in her barn and in the hearts of those that know this loveable guy. He was old for his breed and lived an amazing life. I will always love him.
Last but not least is my Belgian Sheepdog Coco. Coco was christened Backwood's Belgian Chocolate. The lone single in a long awaited litter. The last daughter of her sire and the first of her dam (Mom). Her half siblings are her closest friends. This solo pup won over our family but more than anything she won over me. She and I had many great adventures. She is a hyper active ball of love.
That's all of my animals there but they have there vary own zoo.
