We were all so excited to have Cheryl and Richard join our
crew this weekend. First off we grabbed the last of the
"rebels" and turned them out with all the boys so that we
could watch their interaction with each other. They all
seemed to get along fairly nicely with a just a few
squabbles here and there. And I was so excited and very
proud to see Yogi out with the crowd and know that I could
still approach and pet him whenever I wanted to.
However before I turned Yogi out with the crowd I decided to
see if I could trim some off those long feet of his. He
stayed very relaxed for the whole thing and I was able to
work on all 4 feet. This was my first attempt at a trim and
I wasn't very comfortable with it so I asked Cliff to come
in and try to do some. He was able to work on both front
feet but Yogi was not ready to let him have his backs yet.
Cheryl and Sharron did some work with the burros and Cheryl
offered that it was her opinion that Belle is ready to
deliver within the next month, so we made her her own place
so stay quiet and undisturbed.
Becky grabbed Moose and groomed him out very nicely
including cleaning out his feet. Cliff was close by
supervising and making sure she was holding the foot
correctly.
Sharron worked with Spirit and Magic and got them all
groomed up nicely.
Cheryl did some quiet time work with Jack trying to build
his self confidence in his new home.
Each horse was caught and groomed and feet cleaned. With
all this new found place to move around though some are a
little more reluctant than others to catch. So that is
something we will continue to work on.
