Does anyone remember this book?

Aaaaaages ago, when I was a young Defrost still living up north, I took a horse training book out of the library which detailed the experiences the author had with an Appy or POA named Tonka. I believe he (Tonka not the author) was a stallion, and he was definitely a leopard pattern. Anyone know what book that was? Many thanks!

Awwwwww

Just in time for Mothers’ Day: Taffy, a Sicilian donkey, gave birth early yesterday to Jack, a strapping, excited little guy. Taffy and Jack were at the Beacon Hill Children’s farm in Victoria BC, entertaining everyone who was fortunate enough to get a first glimpse of the new baby and his mother. Link

A challenger for the title?

Looks like Radar has some competition as the world’s tallest horse. A Shire filly in Tennessee, Jenson Diplomat Tina, stands 19.2h and may still be growing (she’s only three). Link and link I haven’t had any luck finding a picture of her for you but will keep trying!

Happy Mother’s Day!

If you’re lucky enough to still have a mum, tell her you love her today.
