Henry tries team penning
This weekend it was Henrys turn to go for a pony party and try something different. He got to go to a team penning clinic and learn how to chase cows. We were up before the sun on Saturday, to travel up to chittering to be ready to ride before 7.30. Arrived with the sun It was a cold morning, but Henry was mostly happy to load up in the dark and eat his hay. When we got there he was a little unsettled until we went for a walk around to get the lay of the land then he tucked into his brekky hwile I tacked up. We met up with our friend and walked down to the arena together. Henry spotting the cows As we came down the hill we heard the cows, then we saw the cows. lot of cows! henry grew about 2 hands and turned into a snorting, prancing dressage horse. He had a look then settled a bit and I was able to palm him off on someone while I had a wee before I got on. Getting on wasn't easy, the mounting block was quite close to the cows, so standing was an issue. Also he was still pretendi
