Romeo was laid to rest on May 26th at 5pm. He spent his last day eating the lush spring grass and visiting the neighboring horses in their paddocks, and he got a massage from our friend Jean Olsen while he grazed. At 4:30 I brought him a tub of...

My mom went somewhere today to see some people sit on white horses. (Editors note: Honeycutt is referring to the Lipizzaner Stallion performance that took place today.) I was not impressed until she told me about the horse that bucked. This horse was a fine, fine...

Quick update on Aiden, who has now been in training for one month. He is progressing well, albeit a bit slowly at first. He got kicked by another horse right after he arrived so he got a delayed start while that healed, and then he turned out to be a bit...

My herd is made up of three mighty horses. When we run together, the leaves fall from the trees. My two friends were both racehorses and they both think they’re the fastest. But I know that neither one of them won any horse races. Me, I have my dignity to consider,...

Zanadu’s potential adoption unfortunately fell through. Some concerns over her soundness in her right knee were raised by the vet which caused the adopter to back out of the adoption. We had Dr. Hannah out the following week to further evaluate her knee, which is...

Everybody wants a horse they can ride. I say that any horse that would permit a human to sit on him has a serious lack of dignity. I say if humans want to go around in circles, they are fully capable of doing so under their own power. I had to do some righteous...
