#saddlebred

Feeling drained from working at home, so all I want to do is draw horses. I also had some ancient Pentel pens hanging around that I wanted to play with.

Today’s Horse Is:

Fury!

Trivia: Fury is a Western TV show that ran from 1955-1960 and over 100 episodes about a young boy and a wild stallion named Fury. Fury was an American Saddlebred originally registered under the name Highland Dale, but was renamed Beaut when purchased by a Hollywood horse trainer. Aside from Fury, he also appeared in Rin Tin Tin, Bonanza, The Monkees, Gypsy Colt and Giant. He was one of the biggest horse stars of the time and positive reinforcement was used to teach him how to walk like he was lame, untie knots and play dead, among many other tricks.
