Only an hour with Beau First Time picking up his feet so GREAT

 Beautiful day for heading to the barn, had to be back very quickly.
Left the house at 1230 and was heading back home at 214pm.

All worth the time.

I was going to take some time to do more of the supplemnents but decide time with Beau was most important. 

I went up the fields, gave almost all the horses some snacks. Beau was in his paddock, and he was on the other sie of the paddock. He was totally happy to see me. Did our exercises in the paddock.  With all of the strange gate behaviors, its nice to just jump over the fence to get into his paddock. As I was headed over, the horse next to Beau, the sweet (usually) red horse, bit him on the bum. He was not happy but did not retaliate. I didnt understnd exactly.

I walked him over to the other side of the paddock where were would work out today. I gave him an apple to reward him for not being a psycho. 







Jumped over the fencing, it felt good not to be  dealing with the gate at the paddock. Maybe Ill always jump the fence. 


Well, Jumped over the fence, kept him straight into his exercises. He wanted to back up, and count with me. Its a beautiful thing. He did his turns then just because he was so loving, and kind, 

I just tapped his leg and he picked up each foot immediately as I asked, Its a dream come true. He is feeling more like he is relaxed, feeling happy to have company in his paddock. I do lvoe to go there and hang out. Shame of it all, there were many flies on his legs, that really makes him a bit uncomfortable.

I was there before Patti, headed into the paddocks and started to give everyone snacks outside. Sunny and 60s, everyone of the horses was happy.


Patti was working out with Ah_Leah in the arena, she bought a brand new lunging line. Im not sure how thats going to work but she looked happy with her. 

Working with Beau today was especially great, he was so interactive and I was able to easily brush him completely. This makes me happy, brushed his face, his back, at the end his tail. All the areas I wanted to brush. then I was able to hug him. Just relaxing on his back area. 

I put my head on his back and just laid it sideways, like I used to with Duke. It was so nice, I breathed in and smelt his wonderful horse smell <3 I was just so relaxing.


Strange thing, I saw the kitties looking at me as I walked down the path to the barn, they looked very hungry. Later before leaving in the truck I grabbed my wet food, and again saw the kitties looking at me because they were in the office and in the ailses. 
split the wet food into each bowl, then gave them some of my water from the gallon container into 2 of thier bigger bowls. I took a quick pic of them in the hay barn on the table eating.
