We are finally thawing out here at Sadie Acres, with a high of 57 today most of the snow has melted and I haven't had to break any ice in almost a week...yay!!
That being said, we have some really muddy runs and some super dirty horses!!
Sadie's run may not dry out until spring! |
So, we decided to take advantage of the nice weather, clean up the horses and hit the trail!
Dad and Rowdy patiently waiting on the girls |
After an incident a couple months ago when Sadie slipped in mud and fell with me on her (we were both ok, thank goodness!) we took it nice and slow today, which is just the pace Dolly and Daisy like.
Quite the caravan, can't wait until we have our little Bernese Mountain Dog joining us on the trail! |
I continue to be amazed at how well these two do on the trail together. Dolly is such a trooper keeping up with those short little legs and Sadie has endless patience with Dolly's complete disregard of her personal space and her endless attempts to speed up and get a quick bite to eat before she runs out of slack :)
Giving Dolly's little legs a rest |
One of the best things about our "herd" is they truly love being around people. Even when they are free to go graze after their ride, they still would rather be with their humans :).
Penny tends to be the least affectionate of the horses, but she is sure getting bonded to Mom! |
You sure you don't have any more peppermints?? |
It was a fun day, I could get used to these temps...how many more days until summer??
