Dozer is our quarterhorse. He talks to me. Back before he lived on our property - and I used to board him at a stable - he would recognize my car and whinny to me almost as soon as I pulled up.
Smart, yes?
His stall is a little distance away from the house - not too far. He can see everything that goes on. If I take the dogs outside, he starts to talk to me. He grumbles. It's a wonderful horse-talk deep in his throat.
So, I've renamed him.
Mister Grumbles.
Of course, he's asking to be fed. So, most often, I comply with his wishes.
I love that horse.
