I was just about to ask this question too!! I'm recently diagnosed and I always go to say 'Appaloosa' instead of Alopecia. ;-)

I love horses too. I have 3 of the little ferals. My family owns a cattle property and we run about 3000 head of cattle. Horses are amazing creatures and so smart!

Curious if any of you have heard of or been to Assateague Island? It is accessed by either Ocean City MD or Chincoteague Island VA. It PERFECT for horse lovers -- as there are about 300 wild horses that live on the island. I was there again this summer and the wild ponies are amazing to watch -- given they are wild you are not allowed to touch them or feed them as they can get territorial or aggressive.

We saw several "chillin" on the beach -- even saw a few rummage through unattended beach bags! ha! Actually saw a short lived fight between two of them!! One was just laying on the wet cool sand!! Really surreal.
