Maybe Woody had something to do with all of this

After all, poor Margie was just having a good day and she ended up with 2 horses, without even looking or wanting any more horses.

is Woody an Irish Gypsy?

Woody? I'll have one of those blueberry muffins, please.

Coffee and blueberry muffins, sounds great!

Good morning everyone. Another hot one here today, but as long as we stay below 100, I'm not complaining.

Morning! Sour, ' Woody' is DS$'s new horse. They said Gypsy Vanner, but he is pretty big so we were coming up with other possibilities. I do not have breed papers on him, so it is a guess. He is a sweetie anyway you look at it. 'Princess' is now "Shadow" in DS$ world and she is a wonderful creature too.
Off to water the critters and get things set.
Thanks for the coffee! Have a wonderful day you all.

Enjoy the day!

Quote: It's a little unclear just what Woody is. Until very recently, if you said "Gypsy Vanner" anywhere in Europe, you'd get a "say what?" reaction - they have a number of names there; Irish Cob, Coloured Cob, Gypsy Cob, etc. Apparently, some guy here in the U.S. decided the word "cob" didn't have enough panache, or something, and came up with the name "Gypsy Vanner," and started his own registry. Cobs, by definition, are smallish and stocky; and while a lot of people love the flash of all that hair and the loud paint job, the Gypsy Horse's stature doesn't quite meet some people's needs (they run about 14 hands - 56 inches - tall). Crossing the Shire, the Clydesdale, and the Gypsy horse together has produced another "breed," the Drum Horse, which is basically a taller version (15 hands +) of the now better known Gypsy. There are Drum Horse registries, and as is the case with a lot of the newer "breeds," there are limits on the percentage of each of the parent breeds that are allowed in animals that are registered.
