It's all about Donna

OK. So, like, this page isn’t about me. It’s about Pharoah. It has to be about Pharoah. Pharoah was my best non-human horse friend. He deserves a page. I’ll tell you more later…

It’s later. It’s still hard to talk about my best bud, non-human horse friend. Some days are good and I can laugh and joke. Some days are not so good. I can’t quit crying over what feels like such a great loss. I know in my heart it is not loss at all, but truly a gain for having such a wonderful animal to share my life for so long. I am truly grateful for all that Pharoah taught me while he was here.

OK. I’ve shared that part. Pharoah was born in 1988 and came into my life in 1989 as a 13-month old. He was our rescue horse. Even though we paid money for Pharoah (all of $200), he was really a rescue. I even got lucky and was able to get full registration papers for him. He was a purebred Arabian horse. Pharoah’s sire was the great Beau’s Image++++. Beau lived to the ripe old age of 30. I had hoped Pharoah would follow in his footsteps. But sadly did not.
