Digby is the UK's first trainee guide horse and he's a very good boy
While many of us like good dogs, a good horse is pretty cool too.
SEE ALSO:Get your pet (or your favorite pet owner) something nice for the holidaysIt was reported last year that Digby the miniature horse was in training to become the UK's first guide-horse.
Well now it seems he's hot to trot. Digby has been assigned to BBC journalist Mohammed Salim Patel. Patel is blind and has a fear of dogs, so Digby means for the first time in his life he can have a guide animal.

"For me having an assistance animal is something I gave up on," Patel told the BBC. "With Digby and because of Digby, I can go where I want when I want."
Patel tweeted about his first time out and about in Blackburn with the mini-horse.

Digby isn't quite a fully fledged assistance animal yet; at only eight months old he still needs to spend a little time getting used to his duties.
Good luck to you, little horse.
