We tied up in her rope halter- while it's not a good one that I like-I'm a big fan of Double Diamonds, this is a weaver.
Cathryn's saddle still fits with her 26" girth! Yes the stirrups have gone back on, I had them off for I was using english stirrups and irons for their width.
Dad's 16" Treeless fits with Pheonix's 20" girth though the breastplate doesn't fit. Bahloo's got a red one that matches her bridle that's in her container of belongings.
Then around 2-2:30 this afternoon was BATH TIME. Try to get her cleaner and smelling better for her trip to Florida and her mommy.
She has a TON of inground dirt from rolling in the pond. I got almost all of it out.
All done!!! Now to dry!
Face brightened right up!
She got to hand graze the back yard while she dried. She was tickled!
Mane and tail always dry first!
Even scrubbing her tail twice you can still see the dirt way down, but Bahloo was getting irratable- probably from the cold water bath! I don't blame her!
Still have dirt coming up to the top so come spring after she sheds everything off, another deep scrub should help get everything up and out!
Pretty clean face!
We're a bit drooly too. At some point she'll have to have her teeth checked, I haven't gotten someone out to do teeth yet. It's hard to find someone that's good to get out and do teeth, my two vets aren't that good at it.
Almost all dry- still down her spine is damp but the wind had picked up so I had let her loose so she could go into the barn, she'd rather stand in the sun(maybe to warm up?) The wind was coming from Lois' side so the panel with Pheonix's blanket blocked most of the wind.
Found Bahloo's favorite treats!! Why is it that all three of them have different favorite treats? Phoenix loves the large Apple wafers, Heidi the Dumor molassas and Apple cookies and Bahloo:
The Manna Pro Peppermint training treats.
