lady horse hoxie, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

Can one of your equally learned associates identify the woman in the attached photo
? I took it
on a Hoxie lot in the early or mid '80's. She might, I say might, have
also done a trained
goat act called, I believe, Smith's Kids.

Thanks in advance for whatever light may be shed,

Paul

Could it be Doris Shambaker (or however she spells it)? She had a goat act and also a trick horse presented with an Indian theme.

It' my mother Doris Smith and her horse Joker. And yes she had the Trick goat act and did a bucking donkey act with her husband Russel.

Wow! Thank you all very much, greatly appreciated. My only recollection is that she was a very nice lady that I enjoyed photographing and watching perform.

Did she work on the Vidbel show in the 1990's ?

Thanks again,
