Kaitlyn Dowding and Hunter

Kaitlyn Dowding and Hunter
The story of Kaitlyn Dowding of Pictou, NS and her five-year old draft cross named Hunter is unique ...
An old friend came up to Kaity and said she couldn't take care of Hunter (who was a yearling with no name at the time) anymore and asked if Kaity wanted him. She had not met the horse, but she took a chance and said she would. When she moved him home he was scared of grass - he had never seen it before! Since that day four years ago, the pair has been inseparable, whether it is showing, trail riding, ring work, or Kaity using him for a chair in his stall. Hunter is always there for her and she loves him to death. The pair have earned many ribbons including a recent first place in Working Hunter at the Pictou Show.
