One time we were driving down a road and I noticed a horse standing. It wasn't till we were a little way past that I realized what I had seen. The horse was standing with all four legs in a cattle guard.

I told Mack to go back. The horse was standing quiet. We didn't know what it would do when we went up to it. We had no tack with us. Mack took off his belt and I walked slowly up to it. Luckily she just stood there as I put the belt around her neck. Mack held her while I went to the house. No one was home.

We tried backing her back into her pasture but she then did start jumping around and came out on the wrong side. We couldn't find a gate, so we took some fence down. Put her back in, put the fence back up, and went on our way. I'll bet the people never realized what she did:)

Wow.... Amazing how your day will suddenly change when you come upon a situation you can help with. Especially when you do such a good thing that no one knows about but you.

These stories remind me of the time that the entire herd of horses got loose belonging to the people across the street from me. It was a neighborhood effort trying to catch them all again. :-)
