for a beginning driver. See video of him on the

Duke went to Alaska and is being pampered! Here is what his new person
wrote:
Duke is doing wonderful! He acts like he has lived here all his life,
and is settling in so well. He comes on the trot whenever we call for him,
and loves his horse treats :) I've been walking him around the RV Park every
day, and I even harnessed him up and drove him around his pen, and the park.
What a joy he is! I can't wait to hook him up to the wagon. Thank you to you
and Alex for matching us with the perfect horse! He is exactly what you
promised, and exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks again,
Mary
