I would love to get a shire one day

[@wictoriaojheden]

oh i love Shire horses, they are so gentle and sweet, i remember the first time, i was 10 or so my parents send me to a riding camp and they had all kinds of horses and one Shire, her name was Kenthouse April Melody but we called her April, they just took me and put me in the box and closed the door, i was a bit scared at first and didn't know what to do, i was 5"2 ( still am lol ) and she just stood there and sniffing me and looking at me, it took me a few minutes and then i had her as my horse to take care f during the week i was there. She was awesome, i had to sit on top of her to be able to brush her and she was so good to ride. I really miss her she was the sweetest of the horses despite being so big. Def one of my best memories of my childhood

Thank you for sharing that lovely story

Shire Horses can only be described as the 'Best Horses in the World'. I may be slightly biased though. When this pandemic is over I aim to visit Wimpole Farm. It is fantastic that Shire Horses are still employed in many ways. 😀😀
