| I brush alot but I don't think she likes being clean! It is so muddy! Today it's about 40 degrees and things are drying out a little more. My friend is g;oing to meet me in the barn to do something about my little beast eating the old horses feed. She is such a pig for his senior feed,no manners at all! So it might be a barn party,yeah! |

My 11 year old daughter has a pony and if there is mud anywhere in the field you can believe he will roll in it!
My daughter get's so mad. I tell her to wait until it dries and brush him again and again and again.

Hey, Dorothy!
Just two days ago, my daughters gave a wonderful soapy bath to the horses they ride. Yep, as soon as they were let out to the pasture...rolling in the dirt!!
Be sure to share more of these storie in teh Barnyard Buddy section......all the gals will love them!!
Blessings Catherine

| Hey Catherine from Texas!Just spent too many hours shoveling horse puckys,I know I'll be sore tomorrow! I saw my first mosquito today,better start giving the beasts powdered garlic.It seemed to help last year.Want to try fly nets but think they'll rip them off.This year I think I better use a grazing muzzle too cause my filly got so fat folks started asking when she was due!Brushed them all again today.Thank goodness it's starting to dry out,it was 55 degrees today,downright balmy! |

Powdered garlic? What a great idea to try - I think I'll try it on my animals, as well as myself!! Welcome to the 'Connection, Dorothy!
XOXO, Libbie
