Dakota


The kids wished for a horse and a horse they got. Kevin's parents happily spoiled the kids when they heard they really wanted a horse. Dakota arrived in our pasture May 1st and has been enjoying himself immensely, there is a lot of green grass to eat. He will leave at the end of the summer. The kids are ecstatic! Kevin saddles Dakota when he is home for the day and the kids sit on him for hours. At first they rode together but now they ride by themselves, practicing how to lead him correctly. Kevin has to hop on every now and then to help remind Dakota to not be so lazy when he is being led. KayDee is a little unsure but she enjoys being on him with me or Kevin. We are so grateful the kids have this opportunity and they are so happy too!

how fun for them. My kids always look forward to riding the horses at the ranch every year. They would love having one in the "backyard".
