忠诚小马和小主人成好朋友 心灵契合赢得马展蓝丝带

Some friendships are simply meant to be! Bella Dunseath of England comes from a family of equestrians(马术). From the moment she was born, she was surrounded by horses of all shapes, sizes, and colors, but none has loved her more than a little horse Verity.
Verity has been watching over Bella in some ways since day one. Bella’s mom often shares pictures and videos of their lovely relationship on Instagram, but it all started when Verity gave Bella her first quick look when Bella was a little baby.
As Bella got older, she continued to spend all her free time with Verity learning to ride Verity when she was just out of diapers. To others’ surprise, Verity was always patient with her little friend, no matter how much the child pulled her mane(马鬃) or climbed onto her back.
Just a few years later, the two of them won blue ribbons at horse shows! The 6-year-old girl has become a wonderful rider because of how confident she feels on the top of her best friend. Now, they easily fly over jumps, two souls moving together as one! Their friendship is so beautiful to see.
