      Horses are awesome to chill with. Feed them sugar cubes and feel their prickly chin stubble tickle your palm. Pet their velvety snoot tips and flubby chest tops. Scritch their jaw corner and cuddle their necks. Watch them roll around on their backs in the paddock. Love 🩶

        I thought my joke was great, and then you had to blow it out of the water!

        I legit laughed out loud when reading this. Thanks for some great joy this day internet stranger.

        Must be a sneak preview! Hopefully season 2 out soon? I don’t really care about this weird small horse, I’m just hoping they finally explain what’s up with the goats!

      I used to clean the stalls on the weekends for my uncle for some spending money when I was a kid. Great way to make a quick fifty bucks for a couple hours of work. The horses were all chill. They’d leave you alone and let you work. The one pony was a fucking piece of shit. You put him in a different stall or he’d get behind you and bite at your ass cheeks or your arms the whole time. Absolute rat bastard.

      He also had a donkey that was the sweetest, neediest guy. He’d follow you along the fence begging for attention. Sometimes, I’d grab a few carrots just for him before heading over.

        I once found a donkey. It was as desperate for attention as I was to not be working at the moment. Things worked out.

      We had two. One was a Shetland. Very sweet. Absolute darling. The other one? Couldn’t even go near it. Total asshole.

      Had two ponies growing up and 15-18 horses on the ranch.

      The two ponies were absolute assholes. Vicious aggressive beast who hated people. The farrier charged double for them.

      The 17 hand paint was a big puppy. He’d follow us around looking for loves and your sandwich. He would beg for a PB&J.
