Anyway, #1 told me when I moved into this fancy new place that I would soon be going to school and learning all kinds of stuff. I had a first, tentative go in the ring a week ago and then, on Friday evening, I had my first proper lesson!
But let's start with a portrait of me. Do you think this is my best side?
Off to school with Mr. E...
OK. So what do I do now?
Face that way? Right.
So, you just want me to walk, Ms. S? Round and round?
And then show you some of my moves?
So, why are you bending down like that in front of me, Ms. S?
You want to play tug of war? With me???? Humans can be a little bit strange, don't you think?
So that, Dear Friends, was my lesson. I thought it was a lot of fun. And afterwards, I was taken to a special room and Mr. E gave me a shower! I had never had a shower before and was a little bit frightened at first, but it felt really, really good after all that hard work. I like my new life!
Violette, I'm betting you're going to be the applette of the teacher's eye!
ReplyDeleteWe think you look very pretty in that purple halter Violette. Going to school is fun. We love to do our training and of course tug is a great game. We did not know that horses liked to play it too.
ReplyDeleteYour friends,
Niamh & Ambrose

ReplyDeleteWell done on your first lesson and shower. Very much looking forward to how things progress for you.

ReplyDeleteYou are a very good student Violette. I am glad I do not have to go to school.
ReplyDeleteViolette, you are such a big, beautiful girl! I bet you will learn fast!
ReplyDeleteWe are SO interested in your lessons, Violette, and we bet you will learn on the first try! Mommy is making some snarky remark about Cats being unable to learn just one word: "no".
ReplyDelete*sigh*
She is rude.
Violette, I'm pretty sure you don't HAVE a bad side! School looks like fun! Especially the tug of war.

Oh Violette, we don't know what those humans wanted you to do, but it sure looks like you did it well! We're glad you liked your shower...we're not fond of them at all!!
ReplyDeleteThose brushes feel pretty good too after a shower. What a pretty girl you are!
