"Horse Tails by Appaloosa Duke", is a horse story about bullying. Duke tells of his own life having to deal with stress and sadness at being bullied and teased from the time he was a foal in Idaho to being trained as a trail horse in Wyoming. Other horses could never see beyond his unusual dotted, spotted coat pattern and treated him harshly.

Many thanks to Milton Decker, owner of Decker's Red Eagle Appaloosas, for the use of his photographs, and for his vast knowledge of Appaloosa traits, characteristics and history.
