So I went to the barn with my sister and couple days again. So, I grab the halter and head out there. When I called my horse, Tiki, he comes running. And the previous day it had rained and stormed all day and it gets real muddy at the barn, so we were dreading the fact that Tiki would be caked with mud. But, he didn't have ANY mud on him, so I was really psyched and excited so he was too. So when I get out there he is beside me, and I have to untie the halter and I dropped it like an idiot, so I picked it up and once I looked up Tiki was gone. I looked for him and there he was, charging another horse who was too close to me. Tiki had his ears pinned and his teeth bared, and he bolted after the horse to get rid of him. Which means he is '

rotecting' and 'respecting' me as the herd leader or his owner. So I am glad to see he loves me like so! So, once again, I fell in love with him! <3333 [drools]
