An interim visit for Anna this morning between her six weekly farrier appointments. Although she would always prefer people to just give her the food, give her a fuss and go away, she allowed me to touch her and then to put her headcollar on. William and I then spent an hour brushing her and doing nice things so that she won't always associate the headcollar with having her feet done. I did however pick them up and pick them out without any problems. I finished the session by taking off and putting her headcollar back on five times the 'normal' way, i.e. over her nose.
Anna has lived alone since her mother died a few years ago but receives regular attention from quite a big fan club that pass her field when they go for a walk in the woods.
