Oh, sensational Shooter! You remind me of my departed horse, Tim, who was Pet Of The Day on February 6, 2000. He was a Palomino, too, and also nervous from mistreatment when I got him.

You and your devoted guardian's story is so similiar, and I can relate to the special bond you both share.

Hope you get carrots and apples to celebrate your deserved honour, and may you enjoy many more happy years together!
