How funny is that horse? I love this horse. He lives on a neighbor’s farm. I want to steal him, but I think they do bad things to horse thieves, so I’ll settle for his picture.

I say, “Moose” (or “Bullwinkle”), because he really does look like Bullwinkle.

What, you didn’t give him a carrot or an apple?

I can’t think of a good name, and I have “Secrets Rising” anyway. :-)

BTW, I really like the photo of the day; good shot, IMO. :thumbsup:

Country Cadillac. ‘Cuz you know that every respectable horse has to have at least 2 names like “Genuine Risk” or “Lady’s Secret” (daughter of Secretariat)

Our 6 year old has a name for the horse…”Sloppy Joe” Why you might want to know…”Mom, because he is the same color as a sloppy Joe and you know how I love my sloppy Joes!’

The marking on his face reminds me of a lightning bolt so I think he should be called “Stormy”. I always enjoy your posts.

So, here I was wracking my brain for a “caption” then I realized I had to name the horse!! Should’ve read better. Well, my name for the horse is in no way gonna compare with jaq’s because that was darn good, giver her the book. But I’m going with “Boogers”. Yes, that’s it: Boogers. Unoriginal and totally childish. (My daughter helped me with this one.)

Meanwhile, the caption is this: “Suzanne makes note to self to ALWAYS bring apples with the camera.”

I think Prince Charming would be a good name for this horse, it will give him dignity, therefore helping him with any self esteem problems he may have, and well, although he is funny looking, he puts a smile on my face which makes him, quite charming.

What a great picture and great horse! I’d call him “Spiro” (after Agnew, of course, just look at that nose!) but your kids will just say, “Who?”.

I am not good at naming animals. Apparently my kids were not either. We have had Fluffity, Snowflake, Snowball, Bebo,Duffy, Ruffy, and the pony was Buttermilk. None of those fit that noble horse so my suggestion for a name is NOBLE. Have a great day and to all.
P.S. there are a lot of good names listed by everyone. Anyone of them would be a winner.

I was going to say Rufus, but that appears to have been taken, so I’ll say “Rusty”. Isn’t he a mule. His legs look too short to be a horse. Can’t really tell from the picture. That’s just a thought.

Oh darn. The first thing I thought of was Moose. He looked like one as his picture came up on my screen. But someone already picked that name. Hmm, now I have to think…

How about Durante? As in Jimmy Durante.
