Friends Forever

My favorite horse a Arabian Spartacus was very special I had raised him from a foal and spent hours teaching him tricks.Spartacus would kneel on command so one day my 4 year old daughter went out in the pasture and had him kneel down. When I took this picture she was asleep on his back and he was being so careful with her as he grazed. That little girl is now 38 years old and is still riding horses and her little 4 year old has her own pony.
Spartacus was a very unique horse we taught him to pull a Carriage and go in many parades. Spartacus loved to be close to us and would follow us anywhere without a halter or lead rope. I could ride him anywhere with just a halter. We had a very special bond that lasted until his death. Spartacus was a very very special friend and horse.
