A Miniature Horse named Magic has been named the "Most Heroic Pet in America" in a vote organized by the AARP.
Magic, a therapy horse, has touched thousands of patients over the past few years. She is a special friend to an 8-year-old girl who had a heart transplant and now is winning her fight with leukemia. Magic was at a hospital bed as someone woke from a coma. She comforted a man who peacefully passed away with his hand resting on Magic’s head. From the Ronald McDonald House to programs for autistic children, Magic has worked her magic.
A heroic pet is one that "has significantly improved or saved a life." The AARP’s Top 10 finalists for the Heroic Pet title included eight dogs and a cat; Magic was the only horse. She will be featured in the 2010 May/June edition of AARP’s The Magazine.
