"Elvis"
Age: 10 years
Miniature Horse Gelding
When we went to pick up Boomer we met Elvis, Boomer's best buddy. We just didn't have the heart to split up these two boys so the unlikely pair came to live with us. Because Elvis ventures outside the horse pasture we have to use Halloween hair die to create an Orange X on his sides each fall to make sure no one mistakes him for a deer. He never leaves our property and simply wanders from my parents' backyard to our yard, and then heads back to the pasture with the other horses in the evening, but we still want to ensure his safety during hunting season. He plays chase with the dogs and loves to nibble on visitors clothes. He also enjoys taking kids for rides either on his back or in his cart.
