I am such a fan girl of the animals that I speak with especially the sassy oldies. I get so excited when I have spoken to them multiple times and then I finally get to meet them in person.
This handsome man is named Casey he is 30 years young. He's been with his person since he was 2, I think. I have been talking with Casey once or twice a year for the last 6 years. He's told me all about these crazy antics they used to do when they were younger when barrel racing and pole bending. Together they were the right kind of insane, it was the great life for him. When he was younger he had gotten a hip injury that he always complains about during our long distance sessions and during those sessions I would always ask his mom to give him a "butt rub" for me with his exact instructions on how he wanted his hip rubbed. For years I have been promising to give him the the exact butt rub he wants if I ever got to meet him in person.
Well today was that day! And It was freaking hilarious! We arrived to Casey's field that he shares with his 3 other herd mates. I walk into the field and the owner yells for them to approach and they look at her all like yeah.... right.... You are up to something. You came in from the wrong gate, we are not falling for your antics. Then I shouted its Melanie I am really here! Who wants "butt rubs"!? The pony who never comes to anyone breaks out into a trot and makes a b-line for me, excited to finally meet me. Casey then realized it was me and takes off in a proud prancing celebration circle before running down the pony threatening her with rears, bites and bucks, never making any contact, but effectively blocking her from me. All I can hear him say to the pony as he does this is out of my way! She is here to give me butt rubs! The butt rubs are mine! All mine!! She promised! He ran right up to me greeted me with a sniff to the face and gave me two little tongue kisses on my cheek and then proceeded to give me his hip. I then gave him the best butt rub of his life. Anyway, he would not let me touch the other horses, he'd let me talk with them but only if I was rubbing his hip (aka butt rub). If I stopped rubbing or another horse approached he would stand over me like this and give them this face which I interpreted as the horse equivalent to neener, neener, neener! His owner said that today he was acting like he used to in his youth and she hadn't seen him like that in years. It was really freaking cool to meet Casey and his family. I can't describe how amazing it felt to meet them all in person and give Casey the spark he needed.
