Dog and horse play.


Lucy and Whiskey Brown getting frisky in the back pasture. Lucy is a 2 year old mixed Portuguese Water Dog. Very special. The horse is one of a kind. He is a 4 year old Quarter Horse stallion. This is what happens when two animals are raised together with unconditional love and kindness. My two "pets" will always be together. They work as a pair, keeping the back pasture safe for me. I witnessed them both running side by side, chasing a wild hog. Coyotes are not welcome either. I have more videos of them. Will post when the time is right. Whiskey Brown likes to "wrestle" with me for fun. Guess that makes me a "horse wrestler"? I can get knicked and bruised up really fast. I'm not a kid any more but this is a lot of fun. He seems to know what I can take when playing. Sometimes I have to say "uncle". Other times I have to let him know what cannot be tolerated. I still get plenty of respect from this horse when he knows that I'm serious about something. He's never tried to hurt anybody. Just wants to play. I'm comfortable being around this horse, knowing he won't do anything intentionally wrong. But then again, he's still an animal. Something this big can hurt you before you know it. Must always give him room to be an animal. Maybe I have an "I told you so" coming some day, but I don't see it with this particular horse. He's like a big baby. (Baby Hughey, no doubt). If you would like to help Whiskey Brown and Lucy,('cause I'm not rich), please send any donations to "The Trinity Valley Exposition" This 103 year old non-profit organization is great. You can send in donations along with Whiskey Brown's name. Tell them you enjoyed the video on YouTube and would like to make a donation. He's never been in front of a crowd before. Maybe an open invitation is in order. Owning a horse is something I've never done before. It's a great experience, but also a challenge. If something happens to me, I would want Whiskey Brown and Lucy to be well taken care of. I know the good people at the Trinity Valley Exposition are capable of doing just that.
