Looks too much like my “Red” who served me well over my cowboy years. He was the best and I have many fond memories of him and various days together sorting, roping, doctoring, even trail riding (which he never was too excited about partaking in). He was a Doc Bar bred horse and in my humble opinion he was as good of a ranch horse as you could ever hope to have.
25 is a good run…
sorry, John

Damn sure is, especially for a ranch horse who’s pounded these hills since he was two, and done it well.

So sorry, John – those Montana Docs were the best! I miss the ones we raised. He was a good partner. RIP, indeed.
