Red Bucket Rescue # 115- Spice

Sugar and spice and everything nice…..that is what horses are made of, especially our new 15 year old thoroughbred gelding, Spice. Spice is a little more sweet than spicy. Diana reported during grooming yesterday that he just wanted to be touched and scratched, he melted into her closing his eyes and enjoying the intimacy. Michelle was gushing about how he wanted his face rubbed and cuddled, and Tony our ranch foreman who was trying to adjust Spice’s waterer was pinned up against the stall wall….and not released until Tony satisfied him with a double handed butt scratch. Spice has already made friends with Pixie and Darby Joe, and apparently his new girl friend is the ever so fiery Dolly.  He is a great looking flea bitten grey with the most unusual swirl of cinnamon. While he is a bit thin and requires some first aid, we are happy to have him. We hear that he not only did hunters for several years, he also is claimed to have loved the barrels. Either way, one thing is for sure, this boy will go to someone who will cherish him, cuddle him…and give him lots of bum scratching! Welcome Spice!
