This is my favorite picture of Tio.  I had gone into the pasture to try and get some pictures of him but he kept following me around like a dog!  I couldn't get him to stand away from me so I could get a good  picture.  So  I chased him away, he squealed and kicked up and I snapped the photo.

Tio was the friendliest foal I’ve ever seen!  When he was no more than 12 hours old, he was running from his mother’s side to greet everyone who came into the barn.  It was like he was coming up to say, “Hello, I’m new here, who are you?”  That people friendly personality that came so naturally to him as a colt has stayed with him, making him a very popular guy around the barn. 

  Tio is  the pasture mate for our stallion, Rocket.  They've been together since foals and they love to stand on the hill and look over the road to the pasture full of mares.  Tio and Rocket do share their 20 acre pasture with the cows!
