8th November, 2014 Sa-shay!

Our intrepid explorers set off in the pouring rain this morning with Highland Ponies Morag and Shay. They were our second 'rode and load' this week and I was impressed that they didn't cancel.

A salute from Carl on what the weather reporter called "a messy weather day".

Shay

This technique works well at home but not away.

Using one panel just to encourage him to go forwards

and we're in....


No panel required for subsequent loadings
"Yes, just home and dry. Except ponies who are out in field! Thank you for today. At least the worst held off for loading. We felt it was really useful.  Lots to think about."

Our favourite baby donkey was too busy eating to help.
