Since announcing the Senior Horse Book, the questions have been coming in steadily. Good questions, the kind that tell me people are genuinely thinking about whether this is right for them.

Here are the most common ones, answered honestly.

What exactly is the Senior Horse Book?

The Heart of a Horse: Stories of Love and Loyalty is a hardcover collection featuring senior horses and the people who love them. Each horse gets a dedicated photo shoot at their yard, their paddock, wherever they're most themselves. Their person tells their story in their own words. The photographs and stories are brought together in a high-quality book that will outlast all of us.

It's not a commercial project about elite horses. It's a community project about the horses that matter to the people who love them, regardless of competition record, breeding, or anything else the equine world uses to rank worth.

What counts as a senior horse?

Generally, 18 and older, but every horse is considered individually. Age is only part of the story. A horse who has given years of faithful service, who carries the weight of a long relationship, who is approaching the quieter chapter of their life.  That's the horse the book is for. If you're wondering whether your horse qualifies, just ask. The conversation is free.

Does my horse need to be groomed or prepared?

No. Genuinely, no. Buddy who inspired this book project was ungroomed on the day we did the photoshoot with him.  He was living his best life with his campion (Chara) grazing peacefully in their field. That's the aesthetic the book is built around. Not the show ready horse, not the groomed and polished version. The real one. The daily one. The one you actually know.

Turn up as you are. That's the instruction, for both of you.

What does my horse's story look like?

It's in your own words. Not polished prose, not a formal write-up, just the truth of it. How you met. What they've taught you. The small details that make them. Some people write pages; some write a paragraph. Both are right. The only requirement is that it's genuine.

If writing feels daunting, I can interview you, a conversation that I then shape into the words that go alongside the photographs. Either approach works.

Where will the book be available?

The Heart of a Horse will be available through wolfeandfox.com and at selected equine events. A portion of the proceeds goes to a charity partner supporting senior horse welfare, to be announced.

How do I register my interest?

Come and find me at a show, through the website, or by dropping a message directly. There's no commitment required at the interest stage. It's just a conversation about your horse and whether this feels like the right way to honour them.

Your horse has a story worth telling. The Senior Horse Book is where it lives.
