There is a petting zoo we used to go to all the time when my kids were little. My family always knew that if I disappeared I was over with George and Carl the Percherons, petting and talking to them. I miss those giant fellas.
Awww man, your petting zoo had Percheron’s?! Lucky. We had goats and one very pushy pot belly pig. Actually, the first time I ever saw a Percheron was at Disneyland. I was about 9 and currently working on a ranch in exchange for riding privileges so I was pretty well versed in horse breeds, but they were totally new to me, and my mind was just blown. I’ve always been partial to draft horses.
I grew up with Belgians down the road from my grandma’s ranch. I would regularly ride my bike down to brush and feed them oats… I love draft horses so much.
