RE: Curious Noses and Cheeky Bites | Horseplay at my Vehicle

Horses are large animals and with 1200+ pounds of muscle, they can be intimidating. Your last photo reminds me of a horse we used to have; I've had 3 in my lifetime. This particular horse we called Piti, short for Wapiti. It is an Anasazi word meaning 'elk'. She was a funny girl in that she would come up to you and if you had another person with you, while they scratched her withers, if you would stand directly in front of her, she would groom you as you see horses do for each other. She'd start along your shoulders, moving to your back and occasionally, she'd also give you a scalp message! She was very good. I'd often take turns with my children, each of us scratching her withers while she groomed us. She never bit any of us, but man, was she good at what she did!

Thank you for sharing the beautiful photographs!
