A Spotted Background

Full name: Spotted. Therefore the captions can be read two ways:

(Celebrity X was) spotted at location Y.
Spotted (is) at location Y.

She is also known as Spot to her adopted sister Eowyn over on Life, the Universe, and Everything: Adventures of a Curious Mind – What was that?

Sex: mare. I was using the male pronoun by default (and isn’t that a whole passel of issues). One day she rolled over and I realized my mistake.

Age: Unknown. I’ve had her just over a year, since December 2012. “Created in the spirit of Wee Traveling Horse (also here on Facebook) and Flat Stanley, as seen on Third Watch.” [Boston] (update: The WTH link has gone private. Check out WTH on FB instead.)

Height: Three-quarters of a hand.

Breed: Spotted is a Knabstrupper of Scleich breeding. Think of her as a German Appaloosa. The breeder’s site has this description, “All Knabstruppers are prized for their health and kind temperament.” Spotted certainly has been low maintenance & tolerates the weird places I make her pose.

BTW, here’s how the American Knabstrupper Association handled the transition to the Danish Association. Don’t you wish all horse associations could be this reasonable and polite?
