In Miniature

We met a lot of people during the construction of our home, and had the pleasure of meeting and visiting the home of a roofer in Nanaimo. In addition to his roofing business he and his wife keep, breed and show miniature horses. And they are really small. The tallest is about 32" at the shoulder, not much bigger than a large dog. And like a dog, apparently these miniature horses are very intelligent and trainable to be "seeing-eye horses". Who would have guessed?
Pat and I visited the farm and I got a few pictures of the little guys, a couple with new foals.






Had she been carrying a purse big enough I think Pat might have tried to sneak one out with her. Why not? A miniature horse would fit in perfectly with her menagerie.
