A horse, a mare and a rooster

On one occasion that Walter happened to be grazing at our house, some movement in the corral caught my eye. Could not make out what it was, so went to investigate.  To my surprise it was a pretty mare whom I have named Dulcinea.


She is a good eater too, she "mowed" their weeds well.  Isn't she a pretty little thing?


She was not inside the corral but from our house it appeared like she was.  Why would his owner who can not even take care of Walter bring another horse to the equation?  I would later learn from observation not because anyone told me...that the mare belongs to a couple that are currently living with him.


Though they do not share the corral at least Walter now has female company and someone to pass the time with.


That crazy rooster is their chaperon :)


At least she is not in that filthy corral.  Her owner cleans up after her as well as has water and shade made available from that trailer.


The rooster is a hoot, he follows Walter around as he grazes.


 The happy couple...


Thank you for visiting Walter's blog.

    1. Glad you liked the pictures. There is a saying that misery loves company and at least he has someone to share it with.

      He looks much happier now. When he comes to graze he makes frequent trips to the fence that separates our properties and looks in on her.
