The Story of Meshack

My Home

Hi, my name is Meshack and I am a grey flea bitten horse. I live on this beautiful farm or that is what my owner Abby calls it. I have many friends and enemies here. Expect these characters in the story too. Well let's start with my owner. Her name is Abby but I don't see her much only every once in a while. Usually the cleaner feeds me. I like him. He gives me lots of treats and food. But that is besides the point. I have one friend that lives in my barn and her name is Breyer. She is a tiny black pony with a lot of energy. She likes to party in the field by doing many dangerous dances. My owner calls the dances bucking, broncing, rearing, and kicking. They are a lot of fun to watch but usually I just watch her go crazy. The cleaner is the only one who can catch her with ease. But whenever I go to work and she cannot see me, she gets very anxious and yells and yells until I am back with her. I have another friend too. She is bigger than me and her name is Kona. She is nice most of the time, but sometimes I hear her owners complaining about her trying to step on their feet and biting her. She lives with another horse named Blue. He is a bit bigger then me but smaller then Kona. Kona is not very nice to Breyer. I think Kona and Breyer are trying to protect me from one another. One time we were left in the indoor arena kind of alone because Abby was still watching and I think Kona and Breyer were fighting because they were bucking and trying to kick each other. But after that they got along well. Abby doesn't like to ride me because she says I am very bouncy. But our neighbor Paisley loves to ride me. They call me Paisley's heart horse. I think that means that me and Paisley were meant to meet each other. She rides me 3-4 times a week. She loves to do new things to me. But her mom comes too. Paisley tries to hug me which is kind of weird but sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't. Paisley has introduced me to a new thing called ground poles. I am supposed to trot over them but sometimes I get too excited and I jump the first one and trot over the second. I am very surprised she kept on riding after that.  Also, I love to bolt into a canter after the poles and Paisley tries her best to stop me but I am too fast because I am a retired race horse but I still love to go fast. I still race my friend Breyer in the field and I race Kona while Paisley is riding me. She always tell me everything is not a race but I think it is. Sometimes my dinner is late and I get very anxious and start doing circles in my stall.
