Tigger the Horse

The Timmerman Zoo has grown by 4 feet.  We now have a horse named Tigger. Tigger is a 20 year old Quarter Horse that we are leasing.  For now, Tigger is staying at his Ranch so we can learn the ins and outs of caring for a horse.   Of course, Holli already knows everything there is to know but Drew and I have some things to learn.  In September we will move him to a stall in town and we will be fully responsible for him! 


Today we went out to the ranch and had a half day lesson.  We had lots of fun and were worn out at the end of the day! 

 

 Holli and I riding.  Holli is on Tigger and I am riding one of the other horses there.  His name is Calvin and he was really nice too!


 Holli riding barrels in the arena.  She might be in a rodeo some day!


 Dylan loved to play with the goats.  Some of the goats had been bottle fed and really like people.  Can you see Dylan in the goat house?

  1. You look good on that horse. I'm sure Holli is over the moon that Tigger is now part of the family. What's the expected lifespan of a horse? I can't wait to meet him.

    I love the photo of Dylan with his hands on his knees! He's so cute!
