When Mom Gave This Foal a Huge Ball, She Never Thought She Would See Him Doing This!

A dog is playfully rolling on the ground with a green ball in its mouth.

When people think of horses, the first thing that usually comes to mind is of a beautiful and strong creature with a majestic and elegant character. So it’s sort of confusing when you see one acting like a big doofus. Sure, their cooperation with humanity has been vital, and we’ve always relied on them for their unending resilience and strength, but in the end, they’re domestic animals, and like all of them, they love to have fun in the best ways.

This particular horse friend is called Cruz, and he’s still very young, at just 4 months. He’s energetic and playful, as most kids are, and he especially adores a Pilates exercise ball that he gave him as a toy. It might be a bit oversized for humans to play with, but for Cruz, it’s just the perfect size. He keeps trying to hit the ball, and bouncing off of it, until it becomes the game itself.

As any resilient horse, he doesn’t give up at trying to control the ball, and it’s almost too cute for words. I had no idea horses could be this adorable!
