We didn’t leave work till late last night so BG got off lightly. I just led her in hand a little to try and teach her manners as she is getting a little headstrong.
Luckily her face (fingers crossed) has been fine so far after her thorn incident. There is a slight bump where the scab is but that is all.
You can tell summer is here, the fly spray is out. BG doesn’t like the sound of it spraying or the feel of it so I spray it on a cloth and wipe that on her, it is easier to do her face this way too.
She is starting to look beautiful in her summer coat. Her neck is a much lighter colour than in winter and it makes her dark mane really stand out.
I am slowly putting her head collar on her in the field rather than her shelter. Just stood by the shelter door to begin with, then a couple of metres away. Maybe one day I will be able to catch her in the field like a normal pony.
We have had a little bit of rain here which was lovely to see, the grass really needs it this year, our field looks bare, but it seems to be the same everywhere, although the hedgerows have sprung to life now.
First morning without a hay net this year. Only P1 stared dolefully after me as I left; P2 and BG were happily eating the grass.
