Early September and the weather is still hot and fairly dry.
Bonnie and Sox have been doing well with afternoon spraying with the garden
hose when the temperature is in the mid to upper 90’s and treats of carrots or
pears.
Vernell Falgout visits on Wednesdays and trains us and both
horse. Today was interesting. Vernell worked with Sox on basic ground training
for about a half an hour. Then he was returned to the pasture and it was Bonnie
Blue’s turn to work on the long lunge line. She was doing okay until Sox got
fired up and started running full speed in the field right next to where Bonnie
was training. This seemed to get her spirits up and she could not keep herself
from trotting with her head up. A couple of pictures of her are included.
She may have been an old throw away horse but now she sure looks
fine to me.
Bonnie certainly is in fine form! What a beautiful arch to her neck. It's a joy to watch Vernell work with her!
