It’s “Feel Good Sunday” and as our readers have come to expect; we comb the internet for something horsey that is uplifting, cheering and hopefully, enlightening to share.
Thanks to a regular and observant reader we were forwarded a video of 2 year Emma Dunn walking her good friend, Cinnamon, on a snowy walk across their Colorado ranch.
Emma’s proud dad, Justin Dunn, is a horse trainer who specializes in teaching horsemanship to children and disabled individuals. It rather looks as if he got an early start with little Emma.
On Justin’s Facebook page the proud father wrote, “These two had and still have a special bond. Cinnamon Girl LOVES her Emma.”
It’s obvious that the feeling is mutual.

That little girl is adorable. She and Cinnamon are so sweet.

That was so cute……really! I did hold my breath a couple times when she got tangled up in the lead though. Dad was great coaching her and she will grow up to be a wonderful horsewoman!

It’s one of God’s miracles how some horses just know they’re with precious children, and to be very, very careful. This video is darling 🙂

How great would it be if ALL kids got a start like that with horses? Maybe lots fewer problem kids & “unwanted” horses, huh?

Looks like a “vicious and dangerous” branded Mustang to me for sure … 🙂

Someone needs to send that to the judge in Vermont who found horses are inheritantly dangerous and vicious.
This little girl is so lucky to have an animal that clearly loves her so.

Proof that these wild mustangs “are just feral horses who trample children and run wild in the streets.” As one lady in a NV neighborhood wrote while ridding it of a small family of long time sweet mustangs. “The mustangs trampled trick-o-treaters.” No chance the kids chased after them in costume. And there was no news of it, B.
The way Cinnamon cares for the little girl is precious, like she was her own fragile foal.

Saw this earlier today on FB, but no mention of Cinnamon being a mustang! What I really loved about the video was how Cinnamon never crowded the little Emma. It was like her sole focus was on the movements of the child 🙂

This horsie is babysitting. Although I was an older kid I was pretty innocent when I got my big ol’ horse Sam. I always felt he was taking care of me and keeping me out of trouble I was not even aware of! Read Sam’s story in “Sam (a pastoral)” a book about family, growing up the hard way and the many blessings bestowed by a trash horse on an angry and unlovable kid

Look how fearless the tot is. Look how completely attentive to her the horse is: head low, stopping when the kid stops, careful about whose feet are going where…
I am loving on this.
