Featured Video: Babysitter Horse

Babysitter HorseBabysitter HorseUsually when we say a horse is a babysitter, we mean you can put a tiny tot on his back and trust that he’s going to stay calm, steady and slow, regardless of what said tot does up there.



This horse takes the job a bit more literally. By investigating the strange object left in front of his stall, Donato discovers he can elicit a reaction out of the tiny creature within. (Seriously, is there anything cuter than the way he pricks his ears at the baby around the 0:09 mark?)



Is that baby entertained by Donato? Overwhelmed by the giant before him? Hard to say, but with such an early start in the barn, we think this kid has a pretty good life ahead of them.
