Frodo put down after a fall

Frodo Baggins, a 1996 black gelding, was imported from New Zealand five years ago, having never evented before. Ashker bought him after viewing pictures on the internet. "Although Frodo had never done a stitch of eventing in New Zealand, he was no stranger to success and more importantly, vast audiences," Ashker said recently. "As I soon discovered, Frodo was the main Dark Rider's horse in the first of the blockbusters, The Lord of the Rings. In addition to filming the movie over a course of eight months, he also paraded around New Zealand for fans, met the prime minister of New Zealand, and even walked down the red carpet at the premiere of the film with Elijah Woods.

1. for Frodo
Dear God, you have given us care over all living things; protect and bless the animals who give us companionship and delight, make us their true friends and worthy companions. Amen.



Dear God, protect and bless all beings that breathe, keep all evil from them, and let them sleep in peace. Amen.
--Albert Schweitzer, "Memoirs of Childhood and Youth"


Eternal Spirit, we bring you our grief in the loss of Frodo and ask for courage to bear it. We bring you our thanks for Frodo who lived among us and gave us freely of his love. We commit our friend and companion Frodo into your loving hands. Give us eyes to see how your love embraces all creatures and every living thing speaks to us of your love. Amen.
