Introducing Zip!

Zip is a registered Tennessee Walking horse. His registered name is I'm Triple Trouble, but we call him Zip. He is a beautiful and talented blue roan who seems to like mixing things up a bit by turning strawberry roan in patches.

We bought Zip when he was turning 2 years old because he matched another almost 2 year old horse we had. We put him in the barn with the matching horse. My step-daughter came out and I told her we were going to call him Zip. She asked why we were going to change Spur's name to Zip. When she realized she didn't know this horse, she couldn't believe how closely matched he was to Spur.

Zip was trained completely by my husband, Brian. Zip learned very quickly and seemed eager to please. He is Brian's main trail horse and he has been showing him a little, too.

Zip loves to lay his ears back ( a sign of aggression) when we go to feed him or mess with him, but he's all bark and no bite. He will trail ride alone, or with a group and his gait has been getting steadily better and faster.

God never ceases to amaze me in how He chooses which horses will come into our herd. I hope and pray that He will allow us to keep and provide for the horses we have now, but, since they are on loan from Him, we can only enjoy them for as long as He allows.
