This horse and car are parked in the similiar manner a taxi car. This shot was taken in Killarney town. Notice that the horse has a nappy bag. There has been much contravesary regarding the use of these and only some of the jarveys are complying at the moment.

Action figure toy representing the Lone Ranger's horse Silver, from the Disney live action movie The Lone Ranger (to be released on July 3, 2013 in the USA). First look. Photographed boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed.

He emits three separate sound effects when his head is pressed downward. First is a galloping sound, for about 10 seconds. Next is a heavy breathing sound, for about a second (reminded me of Darth Vader). Finally he neighs for a couple of seconds. Good volume, not too loud, but clearly audible. Since he stands on only three of his legs, one in the front and two in the back, it's a good idea to hold his back with one hand while pressing his head with the other, so he doesn't tip over. When he is free standing, he is quite stable.

The bridal, reins and saddle are all removable. His mane shed a few hairs when I combed it to make it neater, and I also trimmed a few hairs to make it more even. It is pure white, and quite soft. His body is a dirty white, with fine black speckles over white. The ankles are colored pink, over his dark gray hooves. He has black painted eyes, with pink areas over his muzzle, eyes and ears. I think he is very handsome, with a serious look. He appears to be of very solid construction. However, he has a major drawback of only being 10 1/2 inches tall, so he looks like a pony next to 12 inch male dolls, such as a Disney Prince or the Lone Ranger.

Purchased on May 23, 2013 from my local Disney Store. It was due to be put out on the shelves tomorrow (May 24), but I asked specifically for it, and the store manager brought it out from the back room and let me to buy it today. I also bought spare PNK dolls and the PNK trifold journal. Also some Disney Princes (John Smith, Prince Naveen, Li Shang), so I could complete my Disney Princess Movie Cast photoshoots. I was happy to be able to get a 15% discount on all the merchandise using my D23 card.

Goose Bumps And Love Thumps -

The passionate owls hooted in chorus and the hot to trot horses neigh all night. What do insects in the jungle say about coming into direct contact? “Rear collision rattles our dusty wings but it sure feels great to mate,” a pair of stink bugs in heat exclaimed. On the road to manufacture a hundred little ones, they bumped bruised with throbbing hearts. How beautiful humping moments are. Yellow and orange-red bugs, both deeply seated with mutual understanding and thumping feet. They are going to take a break and do it all over again until next morning.

Arthur’s Farewell (from The Idylls of the King: Guinevere)

By Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809–1892)

HE paused, and in the pause she crept an inch

Nearer, and laid her hands about his feet.

Far off a solitary trumpet blew.

Then waiting by the doors the warhorse neigh’d

As at a friend’s voice, and he spake again:

“Yet think not that I come to urge thy crimes,

I did not come to curse thee, Guinevere,

I, whose vast pity almost makes me die

To see thee, laying there thy golden head,

My pride in happier summers, at my feet.

The wrath which forced my thoughts on that fierce law,

The doom of treason and the flaming death,

(When first I learnt thee hidden here) is past.

The pang—which while I weigh’d thy heart with one

Too wholly true to dream untruth in thee,

Made my tears burn—is also past—in part.

And all is past, the sin is sinn’d, and I,

Lo! I forgive thee, as Eternal God

Forgives: do thou for thine own soul the rest.

But how to take last leave of all I loved?

O golden hair, with which I used to play

Not knowing! O imperial-moulded form,

And beauty such as never woman wore,

Until it came a kingdom’s curse with thee—

I cannot touch thy lips, they are not mine,

But Lancelot’s: nay, they never were the King’s.

I cannot take thy hand; that too is flesh,

And in the flesh thou hast sinn’d; and mine own flesh,

Here looking down on thine polluted, cries

‘I loathe thee:’ yet not less, O Guinevere,

For I was ever virgin save for thee,

My love thro’ flesh hath wrought into my life

So far, that my doom is, I love thee still.

Let no man dream but that I love thee still.

Perchance, and so thou purify thy soul,

And so thou lean on our fair father Christ,

Hereafter in that world where all are pure

We two may meet before high God, and thou

Wilt spring to me, and claim me thine, and know

I am thine husband—not a smaller soul,

Nor Lancelot, nor another. Leave me that,

I charge thee, my last hope. Now must I hence.

Thro’ the thick night I hear the trumpet blow:

They summon me their King to lead mine hosts

Far down to that great battle in the west,

Where I must strike against the man they call

My sister’s son—no kin of mine, who leagues

With Lords of the White Horse, heathen, and knights,

Traitors—and strike him dead, and meet myself

Death, or I know not what mysterious doom.

And thou remaining here wilt learn the event;

But hither shall I never come again,

Never lie by thy side; see thee no more—

Farewell!”

And while she grovell’d at his feet,

She felt the King’s breath wander o’er her neck,

And in the darkness o’er her fallen head,

Perceived the waving of his hands that blest.

Well this horse does appear to be giving me his best smile. Those teeth do not look too healthy, I wonder is this normal for horses? Ray Hogan is the bemused handler.

This horse is Ponemoath who won the Guinness Kerry National Steeplechase in 2007 and 2008. Prize money of about €160,000. Was beaten by Northern Alliance on this occasion.

horse neighing

Domestic horse eating grass.

Kilchii and I have come so far since I adopted him. I can't believe how lucky I was to not only find a gorgeous mustang, but one with the best personality ever. He's literally like a dog. From sleeping in my lap, to licking my hands, to chasing me around and neighing to me when I call him. We've bonded so quickly and have become best friends.

I still remember how spooked and frightened he was the first day I got him and I just so badly wanted to gain his trust. The first time I ever worked with him I just sat in the round pen and walked around a bit so he could figure out what I was. Once he started getting curious I began getting closer to him. I was probably in the round pen for a couple hours before I could finally get a lead rope on him. From the moment we touched, I knew he would quickly become my friend. After the first week, every time I came to work with him, he would always come to the gate and wait to greet me.

He was still incredibly hard to train since he was scared and spooked at anything new I showed him. Desensitizing him to saddle blankets was at the top of my list. With plenty of patience and hours of working with him step-by-step he eventually started getting better. His mind set even changed. He now thinks before moving his feet, which was such a big and amazing improvement! He has surprised me so much with how hard he has tried to please me and I am so proud of how he's turned out, especially knowing I'm the only human that has ever worked with him. He knows all the ground work skills and even some riding skills. He's a pro at lunging and tracks up amazingly, he knows flexing of the neck, leg aids, driving and more.

I just love this horse so much and could never give him up. I still can't thank the Extreme Mustang Makeover and BLM enough for the opportunity to train and later adopt such an amazing horse! I'm one proud mustang owner and can't stop bragging about how lucky I am. Mustangs are one of the most fascinating & all-round great breeds I know. I've seen what they can do and I'm just blown away, especially by my Kilchii. - Lydia Smith, BLM wild horse adopter

What a wonderful testament to the connection between one of America's mustangs and a horse loving teenager! It is something we never tire of hearing about; the unique bond adopters form with their mustang when they get past the hurdle of the first touch and continue down the training trail as a team.

This is not my shot it came in an e-mail I just love it. It was about a horse and cat in Australia I think to cute!

OH, a wonderful horse is the Fly-Away Horse--

Perhaps you have seen him before;

Perhaps, while you slept, his shadow has swept

Through the moonlight that floats on the floor.

For it's only at night, when the stars twinkle bright,

That the Fly-Away Horse, with a neigh

And a pull at his rein and a toss of his mane,

Is up on his heels and away!

The moon in the sky,

As he gallopeth by,

Cries: "Oh! What a marvelous sight!"

And the Stars in dismay

Hide their faces away

In the lap of old Grandmother Night.

It is yonder, out yonder, the Fly-Away Horse

Speedeth ever and ever away--

Over meadows and lane, over mountains and plains,

Over streamlets that sing at their play;

And over the sea like a ghost sweepeth he,

While the ships they go sailing below,

And he speedeth so fast that the men on the mast

Adjudge him some portent of woe.

"What ho, there!" they cry,

As he flourishes by

With a whisk of his beautiful tail;

And the fish in the sea

Are as scared as can be,

From the nautilus up to the whale!

And the Fly-Away Horse seeks those far-away lands

You little folk dream of at night--

Where candy-trees grow, and honey-brooks flow,

And corn-fields with popcorn are white;

And the beasts in the wood are ever so good

To children who visit them there--

What glory astride of a lion to ride,

Or to wrestle around with a bear!

The monkeys, they say:

"Come on, let us play,"

And they frisk in the coconut-trees:

While the parrots, that cling

To the peanut-vines sing

Or converse with comparative ease!

Off! scamper to bed -- you shall ride him to-night!

For, as soon as you've fallen asleep,

With a jubilant neigh he shall bear you away

Over forest and hillside and deep!

But tell us, my dear, all you see and you hear

In those beautiful lands over there,

Where the Fly-Away Horse wings his far-away course

With the wee one consigned to his care.

Then grandma will cry

In amazement: "Oh, my!"

And she'll think it could never be so.

And only we two

Shall know it is true--

You and I, little precious! shall know!

THE FLY-AWAY HORSE

It's so weird that he plays like a right-handed person, even though he's a lefty. He's pretty good though. :)
