Synopsis

After Rocky was born he discovered he was different from the other baby horses. He was different because he was an Appaloosa. The other horses teased Rocky because he was different and this made him sad. His mother told him that Appaloosa horses had a proud heritage and that someday he would do something special. When he grew up, Rocky heard about the rodeo and it sounded very exciting. More than anything, Rocky wanted to see a rodeo. This is the story of how Rocky did something special. This is the story of how Rocky got to be a rodeo pony. All proceeds from Rocky the Rodeo Pony are donated to the Tough Enough to Wear Pink fight against breast cancer and the Cowboy Crisis Fund.
