I couldn't resist sharing these photos of Bear, the wonderful Missouri Fox Trotter gelding whose physical challenges led me into a career in equine body work. Bear now lives in green pastures in Washington, where he calmly shares lush grass with little Bambi and his pasture-mate brother, Trojan, a gaited Morgan.

Welcome to my blog. I'm looking forward to sharing my life with horses, with you. For starters, here's a favorite photo of Andy with his old friend, Max. They loved to hang out together, as you can tell by their relaxed attitude here. Max has gone to doggie heaven, so I treasure this companionable photo as a reminder of his loving spirit.
