I have had a life time dream of having a miniature horse or pony like my dad’s pony that we had as kids - a silver dapple with silver mane and tail. I never thought that it would actually happen. One day I found out about Rainbow Meadows rescue from friends and checked it out. I saw a little horse that surely was my dream horse and went about adopting her.

We brought Delilah home in February 2009. She was a little round wooly bundle of joy. I would spend hours with her, grooming her silver mane and tail and enjoying just having her, but then I felt guilty that she might need a friend her own size. One day I got another call about a little horse needing to be adopted. So in April we brought little Wendy home. Wendy was smaller and darker than Delilah, but such a cute little horse. Wendy was not as trusting as Delilah - who knows what might have occurred in her life to cause this?

Today she and Delilah are like sisters, sometimes loving each other and sometimes not. It is a joy watching as they run and play in the pasture and hearing them nicker when I come outside. We have had hours of pleasure watching them and being with them. It’s amazing watching them interact with adults and children walking and riding their bikes by the pasture.
