Maxine, the Shameless Beggar!

See what happens when I try to eat lunch in my tack room on lesson day?

Maxine has no shame. She'll eat practically anything that gets within a foot of her lips. You'd think she was starving to death.

At the end of each ride she always gets a treat or two. Usually we stick to horse treats, apples, peppermints, or bananas (her favorite). However, she does have a few guilty pleasures that she gets once in a blue moon, including french fries, Mountain Dew, and brownies. Can you blame her?
