I never could keep all of those Tolkien characters straight, but Nick knew right away where Samwise got his name. Sammy is a curly and you don’t see that very often. In the winter, especially, his coat and mane and tail look a little like someone gave him a perm. A lot like it, in fact. Sammy?

This guy has a short attention span and tends to call out to his equine friends. Nick helped him learn to look to a two-legged for leadership. Just look at how Sammy’s eyes and ears are pointed toward Nick.
