Tex's Sweetheart

She is the sweetest little horse imaginable; small and rather dainty looking, lovable, and pretty well-tempered even though there is a sassy streak in her. Tex is fairly head over heels in love with her! Her name is Kaahla (Kayla) and she is our new Arabian mare.

Height: 14.3 hands high

Age: 20 years old (Arabians usually live longer than the average horse, and Kaahla is not lazy as some people have implied upon learning her age.)

Color/markings: Bay –no markings

The first day we got her, Tex (our western, cowboy-ish-- manly sort of horse) pranced excitedly all around her paddock until we distracted him with treats. For the rest of the afternoon, he waited patiently at the gate for Kaahla to come over and sniff noses with him.
