Indie is a Brave Trail Horse in the Book and in Real Life
In The Smallest Horse, Indie is a brave trail horse. The same is true in real life! Indie always goes first on the trail, and the other horses trust her to find the best path to take. She likes to walk fast and easily keeps up with Augie even though he has much longer legs.
Indie seemed a little surprised to find out she's in a book!

Did We Mention That Indie Doesn't Like Baths?
The humans that have horses generally like them to be clean and shiny. Horses sometimes have other ideas. Indie, in particular, does not appreciate being clean. We took this video right after she had a bath so you could see just how hard she works to roll away the clean. In her defense, the extra layer of dirt might help protect her from flies and other insects. Rolling also helps a horse stretch its back and other muscles.
