Horses are much more playful than people think. They are silly and play games, love to play ball, and now it seems there is a wonderful horse named Nimrod who likes to play fetch! When Nimrod's owner was tossing a ring for her Australian shepherd Bracken, Nimrod decided to get in on the act, says Little Things. Not only did he pick up the toy ring, but Nimrod brought it to his owner as well!
But playing with something and actually bringing the toy for a game of fetch are two different things. We think Nimrod isn't aptly named - Einstein might be better for this smarty-pants.
Nimrod was probably watching Bracken bring the ring back and caught on to the game. Speaking of Bracken, he wasn't too happy that the horse was trying to move in on his play time. The moment his mom tosses the ring again, Bracken grabs it up and its fetch-game-over for Nimrod, says Bracken. Ah, sibling rivalry at its best.
See the cutest mini horse, 6-month old Henry Kapono, playing with a giant soccer ball and having a blast. Playtime doesn't get cuter than this! Little Henry Kapono is destined to be a therapy pony with Riley's Place, according to Jasper Ridge Farm. What a fun little guy!
