Best of friends

A few months ago we were out in the barn, and we noticed Stinky (can you guess where our buck got his name?) and Monica (our horse) were pretty lovey with each other. Monica put her head down, and Stinky started cleaning her face. He proceeded to lick her face for several minutes, and Monica closed her eyes, enjoying every minute.

When Sarah would take Monica away from the farm for a ride, Stinky was at the gate complaining. He would let us all know he didn’t appreciate Monica leaving. It’s the sweetest relationship, EVER.

Every morning when we do chores, we try to keep the goats in their stall so that Monica gets all of her hay. She eats slower, so it’s really not fair when 10 goats come running in to steal her breakfast. But lately, we just let Stinky join her. The two really enjoy each other’s company.

Sarah took this picture a few days ago, and really represents their relationship well. I can’t imagine life without the two of them together.
