Thoroughbreds can do
“Tru’ly Amazing” – “Marvin’s” Brother Arrives at His New Home
I had a group of friends with me tonight celebrating Tru Native’s arrival. Not ONE of them could believe he was a OTTB! This is one of the biggest Thoroughbreds I have ever seen.
Reign Day Made It Home to Massachusetts!
We have made it home! Nine and a half hours after loading into the car this morning, we arrived home (it was around 6:30), whereupon we unloaded Reign Day and Ty and they met our “crew”.

OTTBs Aren’t Afraid of Scary Costumes or Politicians
