I was out in the yard with Gabe today, and he disappeared around the corner of the house for a few moments. He reappeared with an entire horse hoof in his mouth. I might not have been able to tell what it was right off the bat, but there was still a shoe attached to it.
I have no idea where such a thing would have come from.
All I can think is maybe there was a horse buried on the land I live on sometime before the 1960s (when the house was built)?
That IS creepy. Either that or there is paraplegic horse hobbling around your neighborhood. Maybe it is a ghost horse looking for his missing hoof. Sorry, I get carried away sometime.
What would also be really creepy is if he disappears again while you are out with him and brings back another hoof, or maybe a rib, or a tail or another horse part!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A breeder we know bought land and built a house on what used to be horse grazing pasture. It's a nice large piece of property and was perfect for her kennel setup.
Her dogs are always finding hooves and stuff, bringing her ' gifts'.
(Apparently they buried the horses there as well, after they died.)
