Kildare's Diaspora Community Connecting Kildare's global community.

I’m sitting in the kitchen in my home in Kildare right now and, when I look out, I can see Sam in the field just beyond the railings. This is his home too. He’s a bit of a sweetheart and really easygoing. He’s kind of like a dog in ways; you could imagine just bringing him out for a walk!

He lives out on the land here with the other horses – it’s more relaxing for them being together – but Sam really is just like a pet.

He has such a cute little head and a very kind eye, and he’s brown in colour; we call it “bay” in horse terms. I’ve had him since he was just a baby, and he’s four years old now. After we got him, he just kept growing; he’s at 15.2 hands at the moment. And still growing!

The thing about Sam is that I wasn’t meant to get him at all.
