Soon he wanted to be with me so we strolled up the pasture and hung somemore! He munched I sipped and enjoyed the early afternoon. It is easy just to relax with Jiggies.
After much munching, we enjoyed some games. We ran up and down the rocky path leading to the arena. Then he got a brush and a hoof clean. It will be a few weeks before he can have a trim and he really needs one. We played somemore then practiced his jump over the big tree stump! After only a few attempts he did a pretty good jump. I was elated so we stopped and he munched more. Shocking isn't it! :-)
He was actually quite LB until he seen the cows roaming around the farm loose. Then a bit of Rt came in but not much he was more curious. I ran into a couple of friends later and they were going to walk around the trail around the parrimeter of the farm. Jiggies has never done this. They encouraged me to come along. We did!! Jigs was in heaven! We walked then stopped a bit and he munched on 2 foot grasses. He was doing the Jig! NO pun! Hee Hee...I wish I had my camera with me, he really did exceptional. All four of the horses just munched and walked the trail. We even came across a farm bridge (big enough for a cutting tractor to go over the little creek) and did a bit of aproch retreat. Being that it was a totally new environment I didn't want to push him too much. He did well. Didn't quite go on it but muched along the bridge. That was cool.
All in all it was a wonderful day and I was pooped as I am sure he was as well. We were out playing for 5 hours!!!! Time does fly when you're having fun and we did. I love you buddy! See you when I get back!
