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.
