Day Off....

Ahhhhhhhhhh today is my favorite day of all, it's 'DAY OFF" when neither my human nor trainer ask me to do anything I don't really want to do, like practice balancing them upon my back or running in circles at the end of a long rope, something they call lunging and I call boring.

Usually on my day off I just hang out in my stall or if trainer lets me, in my paddock. Sometimes I get to roll in mud or big dusty spots in the paddock, ahhhhhh that fells SOOOO wonderful.

Sometimes I just stand around and visit with the other horses in the barn.

Day off is the best day of the week. Maybe I should let human and trainer have a "Day off" once in a while? Nahhhhh they LOVE to work for me, what am I thinking, they'd be SAD if I told them they have a day off!

Silly Pony Trick of the Day....

Elle's Silly Pony Trick of the day:

When your human is filling your water tank on a morning where there is frost on the ground (like this morning for a perfect example!) it is a GREAT time to 'prank' your human.

First wait until the human has the hose situated in the tank. Then as your human is standing around waiting for the tank to fill up, walk over to say 'hello' to your human and ask for attention. Once you have them lulled into a false sense of relaxation from petting you, quietly walk over to the tank as if to take a drink. They'll stand and watch you. GRAB the hose in your mouth and fling it around, never dropping it!

This will surely spray your human with the nice cold water and they'll appreciate your silliness AND the fact that they'll not have to shower once they go inside their human stall.
