I never in a million years thought I would accessorize. I used to tease Hoover about his blankets and boots. Now I tease Magic about his blanket. The fly mask was supposed to be my limit.
But I have boots! My front feet have been hurting for a long time. Today a man I have seen before came and took some odd inside pictures of my front feet. I’m not completely sure what happened – people always give me something to make me a little sleepy when someone examines me or trims my hooves. When I woke up I realized that my feet didn’t hurt. When I looked down, these odd things were on my front feet.
At first I was afraid – I thought my feet had grown some bizarre appendage. But Magic told me that these are special boots to help my feet, and that humans slipped them on while I was dozing. I need to pay closer attention!
The great news is that my feet don’t hurt! I feel like a colt again! Unbelievable!
Of course now the other horses are teasing me – Thor with boots. I have matured a lot, and I know the measure of a horse is not whether he wears boots. Hoover was the best horse ever and he loved his boots. So I am going to go with this. I am Thor, and if I am wearing boots, boots must be awesome. Next thing you know, all the geldings will want them! Ha!
I am Thor and I am an Equamore horse.
