These Horses Got SPOOKY!!!

Note: If you like horses and Halloween, this video is cute. This woman has horses, a riding lesson program, and an online boutique featuring makeup, clothing, and bitless bridles that she designed herself. Anyway, she lives near Ann Arbor, Michigan, and treats her horses like royalty. She threw a party for her horses today, with cameos from Penelope the pig, and Koa, the dog. Spoiler: Mushu the Cob wasn't scared at all, lol.

... pretty sleek. I'm very impressed with that. Horses are not an easy or inexpensive hobby. I pray she is blessed in every way.

5. She's not a "rehabber" per se, but she buys a lot of Amish horses and gives them a soft landing.

Bagheera, the black horse with the hair rubbed off her nose, is an Amish buggy horse. Shae bought her a few years ago at an auction. They told her that she was an 8-year-old gelding. Her teeth looked good and she didn't check under her tail (last time she ever did that). After getting her home, she found out that she was a 27-year-old mare. She's around 30 now but loves to trail ride and is a staple in their lessons. She'll let Shae know when she wants to retire, but for now she loves being active.

... but hey all seemed well taken care of, well socialized. She deserves a medal.

And horse traders, caveat emptor, and count your fingers after the handshake.

Her horses are all rescued or auction bought. She is a good person. She finds good homes for the horses she buys.

She is like Barbie Doll equestrian. She has a nice line of cosmetics and Free Spirit Equestrian rider clothing. I enjoy her channel.
