PEANUTS By Ted Howard, Ted Howard Stockmanship, Production Animal Consultation
P
eanuts wasn’t the easiest horse to be around. He always wanted attention. He would paw his metal bunk if he felt you weren’t moving fast enough with his feed. He was never very excited to be caught, and when he was being saddled, he spent most of the time pawing the barn floor. However, he was a great heel horse and a solid addition to my stockmanship work in the feedyards. He could adjust his speed to any situation at hand. I trusted him with any rider I asked him to carry, most importantly my granddaughters.
