Whoo-hoo! I got peppermints and carrots and a new halter and lots of pats. I still had to work today though. We worked on stretching downward and relaxing through the neck. It was really hard cuz we got two new horses in the last two days so I was really busy looking at them. Especially since one of them is all black and white and looks like a cow! I played a lot today too. I ran around with Kai, my newest best friend. Me and Kai like to see who is taller when we stand on our back feet. He's taller than me but he's older too!!
Ma says that according to the Jockey Club, I turned 5 on January 1 this year. It's a thoroughbred thing. But my ACTUAL birfday is today.
I have been learning a lot! Ma keeps telling me to relax. All the time! She says that everything is no big deal. But I think its a big deal!! We cantered the other day and it was SO FUN!!! I wanted to RUN but she wouldn't let me. She's no fun. We also trotted over these long colorful plastic thingies. I think she said "trot poles" but I dunno. They were fun. I had to really focus on what I was doing though. I really want to play with all the other horses around me but when Ma asks me to go over the poles, I have to focus. She laughs and says I have ADD. I don't know what that is. I hope I'm not sick!!
Ma made a new spray for my coat and tail. Don't tell her, but I like the way it smells. I stand really still when she sprays it on me! She does spray the fly stuff and I don't like that as much. It's stinky. No wonder the flies stay away!
