Our third horse, Hank, died in early October from a freak accident. Colter had been training him for months and he was about ready to come back to the ranch for Papa to ride. After Hank died, Papa began the hunt for a new horse and he found Doc. Doc came to the ranch a few days ago. The pecking order was quickly established, with Doc in lowly third place, as Oscar and Pablo asserted themselves to be sure Doc understands the rules on Winchester Ranch. The rhythm between them is interesting to watch, with Oscar clearly the leader and Pablo acting as junior officer, making Doc the enlisted horse.
