The three-year-old animal, with a height of 50 centimeters at the shoulder, was trained by her as a therapy horse, riding instructor Carola Wiedmann from Breckerfeld in Sauerland told the German press agency. Bumukhel is a lovable little horse and makes many children and old people happy.

An acquaintance did not want after the birth of the little boy. As the longtime trainer at Whiteman Riding Stables explained, she took him in as a colt three years ago. “I was shocked when I saw him for the first time. I have never seen such a small horse.”
