Happy Feet

Finally, the Shertlands were all successfully trimmed at the weekend.  Fern was relatively easy to catch, (which is a miracle in itself), the sun was shining and the Farrier even arrived 10 minutes early!  You could have knocked me down with a feather. 
Tia did attempt standing on 2 legs at one point just as the Farrier was working on a back hoof, but then she decided it was much too difficult to sustain and stood quietly while he finished her trim.  A few moments later a large truck drove past on the road and not realising there are some low hanging tree branches over the road, he smashed into the tree, creating a loud bang, which made all the Shetlands jump in unison.  But the truck set off again and a few bangs later he reached the end of the road.  All in all, the day was a success.

Hoof Trimming Time

Today was the 2nd appointment for the Shetlands to have their hooves trimmed and as usual the day was a disaster.
The original appointment last week was cancelled due to heavy rainfall as the trimming has to be done outside.
So today the outlook was good, the sky was clear and I went to catch the Shetlands so they would be ready and waiting for when the Farrier arrived. After catching Holly and Tia, I went to get Fern. Unfortunately, Fern had different plans and decided she was not having her hooves trimmed today. After over an hour trying to catch her I realised the Farrier should have arrived by now. After several failed attempts to reach him on the phone (a common occurrence) and as it was now getting dark, I gave it up as a bad job and released Holly and Tia. I finally got through to the Farrier later in the evening (with no explanation for the failed visit) and made a 3rd appointment for the weekend. Oh joy!

Winter

As winter fast approaches preparations begin to get the horses ready. First I have to dig out the rugs for Jigsaw and Jake and make sure they are up to the job of being rolled in mud and scraped against trees.
Hector the old Shetland will need a new rug this year so I'm searching for a tiny rug to make sure she is nice and warm when the inevitable snow arrives. The younger Shetlands don't need rugs, they just snuggle up with the other horses and share body heat. Jigsaw and Jake will then move out of their summer field and join the Shetlands, which usually results in dominance battles, which Jigsaw wins. Next it's hay time, when the local farmer drops off a big bale of hay, which usually gets devoured in 6 days. The horses listen out for the sound of his approaching tractor and are tucking in to the hay before he has finished unloading it. I then have to dig out my waterproofs and a good head torch for the dark evenings when I can barely see my hand in front of my face. This is usually when rugs have to be adjusted and many a night I've struggled to hold a torch in my mouth whilst re-fastening loose rug straps or picking out hooves. Bonfire Night looms, when all around fireworks are exploding and I just pray that there will be no mishaps. Mornings are spent breaking ice on water buckets and scraping snow off the Shetlands.
It's such a relief when winter draws to a close and the days get longer again. Then I can relax for the next 7 months.

FERN

Fern is my little black Shetland Pony and she is very timid and virtually impossible to catch. At one point last year it took me 6 weeks to catch her for the Farrier to trim her hooves. I spent day after day sitting in the field trying to coax her to come to me. I eventually managed to pen her into a section of field and finally caught her. Once on the lead rope she stands quietly whilst her hooves are trimmed, unlike Tia who can do a brilliant jump up in the air while the poor Farrier hangs on desperately. He says Shetlands are often harder to trim as they are so small he has to practically lie down to trim them and they can be a bit of a handful and get up to all kinds of tricks - or maybe that's just my Shetlands.
They are due their next trim in a couple of weeks so I'm preparing Fern for the traumatic experience so I can catch her on the day. Maybe I should take lessons in horse whispering.

Sunday Morning Ride

My niece, Lauren takes the lead on Jigsaw, whilst Jake and I lag behind at the rear.  Both horses prefer to be in front and whoever ends up at the back will usually plod along, sulking.  So on the homeward journey, Jake gets to lead and proceeds to be overtaken by a pedestrian.
