CANTER Reading

Twoey and the Goat
by Robbie Timmons

“Twoey and the Goat” (ages 7-15 to adult) about a REAL thoroughbred racehorse whose constant companion is a pygmy goat named Kidd.

His racing name was “Two Links Back” but everyone called him “Twoey.” A true story: Twoey would NOT RACE unless Kidd the Goat went to the starting gate with him, they were inseparable.

Twoey was a champion racehorse and even won “Colt of the Year.” When Twoey left racing because of injury, he came to a Thoroughbred rescue organization called CANTER, in which Robbie is actively involved. Robbie helped find a permanent home for Twoey AND the goat!

“Twoey and the Goat” is the charming story of how these two unlikely friends met, their adventures and mis-adventures, and how Twoey became a champion racehorse with the help of his teenage owner and of course, Kidd the goat.

While Twoey worked hard to achieve his goals, their bond of friendship helped them survive challenges of the racing world and brought Twoey to a winners circle he would never have to leave.

Readers can get updates on Twoey’s life by emailing twoeyandthegoat@aol.com.

Proceeds benefit CANTER, to help find new homes for other thoroughbred racehorses after they leave racing. The books are $15.00 plus $3.00 shipping.
