symbol of equine health

You know the best symbol for a horse, don’t you? The one that says all is well; healthy horses are close by? Horsepeople can’t pass a pile without a glance. It’s like checking vitals and treasure hunt at the same time.

Non horse owners are not as enthusiastic. I call it Fecalphobia- an irrational fear of digestive waste. Thankfully, humans are the only species prone to the disorder. (Nincompoops.) Other species are just fine with bowel relief. We’re the silly ones.

Humans could stand to worry less about their footwear, and go follow that scat, like a rainbow to a pot of gold.

The incredible miracle of excrement!

Turditis with projectile infermatude is a killer, but a nice gererous pile: Craptastic!  Fecalicious joy! Fanscatic release.  Cow-pie-pretty poopitude! Stoolpendus equine treasure not far away!

Turdatious gratitude! Thank God for poop. We get to live with horses another day!
