Re: [RC] The Sheath Cleaning Song - Rassiga, MD, Anne

Angie, you just might have to wait until your new horse picks his own name out. The horse I'm currently competing came with the name Raz. I have a friend that I ride with whose horse's name is Raff, plus this horse just didn't look like a "Raz" to me. Two weeks after I got him, I took him to a ride and figured after I camped with him all weekend a name would present itself.

Sure enough, we came into the halfway hold and I was trying to loosen up the girth and get things comfortable for him, but all he was interested in was food. He picked up the bag of apples and was trying to shake some out. I took the bag from him to help him out and he couldn't wait. He found the bag of carrots and was going to help himself to those but was still finding it difficult to open the darn plastic bag. I finally got everything situated for him and he just "hoovered" everything in sight. I decided Hoover wasn't a classy enough name for this comical horse and that's he got the name "Kirby".
