Thanks for all the compliments! Funny you should mention peppermint.........He got some peppermint horse treats for Christmas. And, I hardly ever ride anymore. Just kind of got out of it. Flair's more of a big dog. But, I won't get rid of him because I've had him since he was a baby. He loves the place he is now and I'm going to start visiting him more. For a while, I have been an absentee mother of sorts.
