"This is my beloved mare Mhea. I got her when she was four and I was 13. Twenty years later and we are still together and going strong. She is Hanoverian x Arab/Connemara and the smartest, quirkiest and most loving little horse I've had the pleasure of being in the presence of. The in-hand picture is the day I got her and the other is how she looks now"
