Even though these matching animal buddies aren’t the same size or species, that hasn’t stopped them twinning… or tripleting, we should say.
Horse trainer Greetje Arends-Hakvoort has three very similar looking pets – an Appaloosa stallion, a Shetland pony and a Dalmatian dog.All of these lovely looking animals have stunning black spots, which, their different sizes notwithstanding, make them look almost identical.
Dispite their size and species differences, the animals are best buds and love hanging out together.
Mum Greetje, 35, regularly catches them running, training, and having fun. She loves taking the animals out with her seven-year-old daughter Jolie Lune Arends, who enjoys riding Napoleon, the Shetland pony.
‘Napoleon was actually born at the same time as Jolie so they grew up together and now they are the best of friends.It's certainly unpleasant to take your dog outside when it's snowing or raining, but don't forget that dogs' paws are just as sensitive to heat as human skin.
‘Trust is the key word here; horses thrive when trust exists and they need to feel comfortable and self assured and Jack does exactly that.
‘There’s a lot of horse and dog love there between them.
‘We have even more spots here now as the family is growing!
‘We have three other horses and training them is my passion.’
