Horses always know how to get home. In fact, the big challenge in riding them is keeping them headed away from home.

The 21-year police veteran riding him had some injuries to his neck and shoulder. 21 years on the job and some neck and shoulder injuries adds up to a nice pay off. 3/4 pay, tax free plus SSI. I wonder if there were any witnesses to the incident?

When I was a kid, the horse that pulled the milk wagon through the neighborhood knew all the houses on the route.

No, no one is looking for the cop.
The horse found its way back to its stable and the cop found his way back to........the donut shop!
(seriously folks, im glad he’s okay)

I’ve known a lot of horses. Most know their way back, and given any provocation or opportunity or suggestion at all they will start going where they get their needs met.
Much like us.
To: Redcitizen
The horse just did not want yet another fn donut.
