Chicken Soup for the Horse Lover’s Soul – Jack Canfield & Mark Victor Hansen, with Marty Becker D.V.M., Gary Seidler, Peter Vegso & Theresa Peluso

Inspirational stories about horses and the people who love them.

You know you’re a horse lover when…

• You accessorise your hairstyle with pieces of hay
• You examine every piece of rope or twine for its halter potential
• You think a great vacation is spending a long weekend in front of a horse trailer by a dusty arena
• You take your children’s temperature and think 102 degrees is normal
• You spend more money on horseshoes than on your own shoes
• You always keep carrots, apples and sugar cubes in the refrigerator
• You prefer the smell of a stable to cologne
• You sleep with your boots on and count horses to fall asleep
• Your laugh begins to sound like a horse whinny
• Instead of giving someone directions to turn “left” or “right”, you tell them to “gee” or “haw”
• You still have your childhood horse statues in your bedroom
• Your favourite outfit is made of leather and it includes whips and spurs
• You talk to your horse more than you talk to your spouse
• You spend more time at the feed store than at the grocery store
