Pet Name: Ria

Pet Owner & CHS Position: Joshua Tybie, Overnight RTC in Van Demark

"I received Ria as an extra 'Freebie' as I was purchasing another horse about 7 years ago. I was told she 'wasn’t trainable' (She sure showed them!) and that I could have her. After about 6 months of training, I ended up with one of my best friends, and she ended up being my partner when I worked with the constable’s office in Galveston, TX! She is a trained police horse, and we go on adventures all the time! She even helps me eat my Subway when I go there before a ride haha!"

Age: 13 Years

Breed: Paint (Equine)

Favorite food: She loves her alfalfa hay, and oats, and Subway, and Dr. Pepper, and pretty much everything else she sees me eat!

Favorite sleeping spot: Anywhere near the hay bales! Or me if I happen to be there!

Favorite toy: Well she loves her Jolly ball, she will throw it for herself LOL!

Favorite activity: Her absolute favorite activity is being in parades and interacting with kids.

Naughtiest habit: She likes to go through my bags looking for goodies.

Biggest pet peeve: Being told no!

Funniest memory with your pet: Watching her dealing with being dressed up like a reindeer for Christmas.
