Hank has been an only horse for a little more than two and a half years. I worried that he would never adjust to life without Lyle,
but I couldn't have been more wrong. With each passing month, he has become more laid back, less flighty, and well...more like a burro.
Pssst...Hank...wake up! I'm talking about you.
I'll be hauling Hank to the vet next week for his annual physical, and I'm sure the x-rays will show his knee has gotten a little worse,
but it is what it is. He's content, he's otherwise healthy, and he's the very best pal to hang out with. Even George thinks so.
Hank does, indeed, look nice and calm and comfy. I meant to say before that his hind quarters are beautifully muscled.
ReplyDeleteI worried that Angus would feel lonely after his poodle brother's demise, but he's livin' the dream!
Love, love, love me some Handsome Hank - thanks for the closeups :)
ReplyDeleteI wish the vet would make a house call and come to Hank.
ReplyDeleteLove handsome Hank! I'm glad he is more laid back now. I wish I could relax like George and Alan!
ReplyDeleteHank is a beautiful horse, inside and out. Hope his visit to the vet goes well.
ReplyDeleteIt really is wonderful that he is now a part of the burro herd. ((sigh))
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe it's been 2+ years since Lyle's been gone.
I love Hank.
ReplyDeleteAs a kid I had a terrible experience with a horse and have been horse shy ever since, but Handsome Hank has changed my whole attitude about horses....well the ones disguised as a burros big buddy, anyway, Smooches and Squoozes to 7MSN, Oma Linda
Such sweet pictures. He is a very happy horse and lucky horse.
ReplyDeleteGood wavelengths going on. The give and take of friendship is a beautiful thing. Hoping for a good report from the vet.
ReplyDeleteI love Hank! I love all your critters! My Libby, well, this Dec will be a year she has lived with Donkeys...and she becomes more like an ass every day! In a good way! LOL
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it's almost two and a half years since you had to say goodbye to Lyle.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about Hank adjusting, so it's great to see he's happy in himself. Happiness & security go a long way to balancing physical degeneration - as I'm personally finding out!
I thought Hank and Lucy were friends too.
ReplyDeleteAwwww hugs to Hank!
ReplyDeleteOMG, he is a burro... giving hugs and all!
ReplyDeleteI have heard that a single horse really thrives best with a burro buddy or two. Sure looks true! Best to Hank on his doctor's visit.
