Well I shouldn’t call him my “little” man as I do in my title. Mainly because he wears and extra-wide saddle, he may not be tall but he makes up for that in width.
Mr. Poncho has officially, for the time being, matured into a “grown-up” horse. He’s been so brave (since the unfortunate incident) and confident! He’s thinking for him self . He’s going off on his own and even protecting “his” herd. It’s bittersweet for me though…
On the one hand I’m so relieved he’s growing up and coming into his own. But on the other hand he doesn’t constantly do the quirky little things he used to. Don’t get me wrong he’s still the same trash can attacking, wheel barrow eating guy he was. The episodes are just further and farther in between each other. The main positive to this lifestyle change (if you will) is we can go on more adventures without having our baby moments – meaning tee-total FREAK OUTS!!!!! We can for once calmly take our hacks into the front field and down the drive way without encountering any scary horse eating monsters. We can also go on in hand walks down to the pond where the frogs and birds won’t kill us , ahhh so refreshing.
I could get used to this…
