An ex-soldier has proven that some bonds are unbreakable by adopting his retired army horse two decades after they were first paired together.

Thirty-five-year-old Ezphia Rennock, from Preston in Lancashire, England, found an unlikely comrade while serving for the Queen’s personal guard, a faction of the British Army’s Household Cavalry known as the Blues and Royals. He was paired with a hard-to-handle horse named Agricola, and the pair became firm friends.
