Something To Be Proud Of


Matoaka stands at about 12.1 hands. She is small but yet she is not two. She is very slight in build but she has a longer neck and a longer back than most Corolla's. She carries herself proud with her neck outstretched, her feet in a paso gait, and her tail held elegantly out like an Arabians, sometimes.
She is nothing but sweet, determined, willing to please, and strongheaded. With a mind of her own and something to prove but very quiet and reserved, we make a great team. We work together and sometimes we don't always see the same eye to eye. Well that's true I am 5.5 and shes........short. What I mean is that we sometimes collide on what we want to do.
She wants to go this way while I am going that way. The after affect of that....I fall in a ditch while she looks at me from the side as if to say,"listen to me human." I want to run she wants to eat....I hit the end of the rope in a slingshot manuever as I rick-shade backwards into her. She probably laughs. I now choose to consider my little genius horses ways. I don't let her show me any disrespect and I act with firmness but I realize that she has a mind better than most that other horses waste by learning how to do pointless stuff. She kicks, me I will firmly tell her no or give her a slap on the shoulder to get her attention.
I watch what she does and it makes sense to me. That isn't normal and it scares me. I couldn't love a horse more though. That is what I see in the Corollas horses. A cutting edge sense, and full of the evil little humor. For horses they are smart. I look at her and see something to be proud of.
