...time to meet LADY, my new foster horse!!
So, um, she is super super great already.
She popped off the trailer pretty looky-y but no spooking at all! I was super impressed.
She is pretty pushy on the ground but I think a rope halter (the rescue was trying to use a nylon web one) and a little effort will change that right up.
She and Lacey pretty much immediately bonded. They gave each other a good sniff and promptly cantered the perimeter of their pasture together (Lady in the lead, she's definitely the dominant one but not rudely so).
Lacey thinks Lady is probably the best thing ever. If Lady moved farther than about 10ft away, Lacey'd immediately move herself to catch up. I was impressed with Lady even more because Lacey was trying to constantly be in her space (I think the whole blind thing) and Lady didn't do more than flick her ears back just a bit.
Such good girls!
Anyway, what you've been waiting for, PICTURES!!
Lacey is a CHUNK compared to Lady. That will be fixed very soon, trust me.
Such an adorable lil face!
And, um, I see NOOOO playing with her mane, at all, in my future. Nuhuh! Not me! haha
"I haz friendship!! Didja see her!??"
She's still skinny. But she's only been rescued for about a month so I have a sneaking suspicion that she'll be a very easy keeper. haha
"Don't make fun of my chub! I cannot help it!"
Cute Arab girlies...
ALERT!
"Psh, that young horse is sillllly!!"
Gotta go do more investigating...
"What's over there?"
[Also, Lacey's butt compared to Lady's = LOL]
"That girl with the camera...she fed me cookies...."
"Welp, gotta go!"
Lacey's like insta-herdbound so we'll be doing some exercises to combat that... haha
But yeah, they really like each other so yay!
I hope your day has been fantastic too!
