Two of them, Doc and Dusty, were found and brought home. But the third, Major, continues to elude his worried owners and those helping search – leaving everyone dumbfounded.
“You know, this is a 20-year-old horse that’s got a lot of character and set in his ways and a super cool guy. So, it was really odd that he was missing, and we knew he could only go a certain number of spots,” Morgan told FOX 17 Friday. “Places that we think, realistically, he can be stuck. We’ve obviously exhausted all efforts and made sure he’s not there.”
Morgan explained that Major, like most horses, wouldn’t abandon his troop. And, more importantly, the things that keep him mounted.
“He wants food, water, shelter. It’s the only three things a horse is interested in. That’s the only thing that they are going to naturally desire to go after,” Morgan explained.
