Dearest Dobbin, what a beautiful Quarter Horse you are! You're so handsome with that brown and white coat and that sweet face with the lovely brown eyes. And what a story you have to tell! I was horrified to read of your earlier life with so many abusive owners. I'm so very, very glad and grateful you were rescued by your dear person and are now living the happy, comfortable, love-filled life you deserve, and you deserved all along. You have had many trust issues, understandably, and your person has worked with you for a whole year to gain your trust and build your confidence again. Now she can ride you anywhere without hesitation, and you've even started jumping!

You work with her at a 4-H farm, demonstrating that every horse is good for something and should not be abandoned just because he's been seriously mistreated. With just a little time, patience, and love, any horse can be great! You and she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Dobbin, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
