Horse time

Picking up where I left off(from about 3 years ago). I am amazed how quickly spam gets in here! I have no idea how that works- is it an automatic thing that pops up on any WordPress being printed?
It gets me frustrated, for sure; I feel I have to mark each one as spam and delete it! Now I am replacing those feelings of frustration with pity. Who has that sort of time or ambition to want to spam articles?

I got to brush the horses 2 days ago. It was actually sunny here! I spent 30 minutes on each. They really have begun to shed! I figured that this is the start of ‘training’. The winter has been long and somewhat hard. I don’t have an indoor arena, not even an alley way in the barn! Mine is just a pole barn that needs repair. I am grateful though, that I can shut them in in real inclement weather! My horses are very happy…they have a shelter if they want it! They can eat their hay under a roof. I see them indoors quite a bit, just looking out the doorway.

So, as far as me calling this training….I do make them stand still while being groomed. But it’s hopefully bonding time too. Before I set off to bigger and better things! My mare Ginger, really enjoys a good grooming. I have seen her forgo eating just to be groomed! Now Brego, aka Fatty McFatty, would never forgo food for anything under the sun!

I believe I have mentioned before that my 2 horses don’t do the mutual grooming thing that I’ve seen all other horses do. Never once have they stood withers to withers using their teeth to groom each other. That is due to Brego being a social misfit…:(
