Millie the 6-year-old Clydesdale and Geoff Youll hit it off the moment they met.

She joined Geoff’s family in November 2022 after he and wife Jenny bought her from people just down the road at Josephville.

Including Millie, they now have three horses as well as Hubey the kelpie and some sheep.

Here’s what Geoff has to say about Millie:

“She’s got that nice quiet temperament – most Clydesdales are quiet. We had an old Clydesdale, Jasper, who died a few years ago,” he said.

“She shares the paddock with sheep and new little lambs, and they even lay down under the tree where she’s standing.

“She’s there to greet you like a dog when you come home, or when you’re going to work, she’s there to say goodbye too.”
