UPDATE: Jack

Yes, everyone loves Jack! He's definitely the "Fabio" of the ranch at the moment!  Jack is a big, beautiful American Creme Draft horse, and he has captured everyone's heart.

We assumed this was due to walking on the new gravel driveway, so we made sure not to let her walk on it. We also put some boots on … [Read More...]
