#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I have a spoiled little horse named Peanut who is adorable and bratty and he knows it lol! He doesn't jump very nicely because he gets nervous and it takes a lot of effort to get him comfortable to even go over poles on the ground. He will not under any circumstances go over anything on the lunge line he will simply stop and star at it shaking. He's the type of horse who if he doesn't want to go will just plant his feet and not move an inch even if a bomb goes off under his tail
#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Well anyways enough with the background info the funny thing is... today I put my horses in seperate paddocks for grain time which happens to be right at supper time for me. I fed them and put a log half way up the fence (around 2'3) so that they couldn't steal each others grain. I then went inside the house to have my own supper. I got stuck doing the dishes which totally sucked and when I got outside again I noticed in awe that Peanut was not in his paddock, he was acutally in Eddy's. The log was still up between the paddocks. I then quickly went over to check Peanuts legs, not heat no swelling and he was quite sound. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#OK now get this, last time I tried to jump him it was over a verticle which was about an inch off the ground and it had a ground pole and that was ITY BITY TINY and he acted like he was going over it and then right before he did he planted his feet and backed up fast. And me I was sent straight into the sand, seriously I was COVERED in sand in my ears and hair and mouth and inside my bra it was gross! But yet this horse can calmly jump a 2'3 verticle with no ground line when no one is even watching him!!! #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#anyways that's my story lol#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
