When ever we get a rescue or any horse for that matter the kids and I love to give them a new name. I feel it kind of symbolizes the start of their new life :-) For example our latest rescue Is a 17 hand TB mare that qualified but never ended up racing due to a injury as a two year old I am told .While I do not remember her reg name right now The people she came from, had called her Bella. I took one look at her while my husband unloaded her from the trailer and all I saw were legs ( being 200+ lbs under weight kind of made them stick out that much more. So we now call her legs. another one was our Hackney pony his name had been dusty now it is Twilight. Dezzy my 11 yrs old daughters gray Arab/QH mare is now called Cloud dancer. our 14 yr olds gray mare was suzette
now her name is whisper. and of course our 5 yr old daughters pony went from cinnamon to "Princess" same as her dog and her cat And her chicken lol :-))
My horse's feet are as swift as rolling thunder He carries me away from all my fears And when the world threatens to fall asunder His mane is there to wipe away my tears. ~Bonnie Lewis
