V & H Vendredi

 Heloise: Neighs, Everyone. It's been a while! At the moment, I am in a field about 5 minutes drive from my Mama and Sis, with The Big V and Aral. Ms. C doesn't like it when we're not right by the house, but there is a lot of grass still in this field and someone's got to eat it, right?

Last Friday, the farrier came to give us all hooficures and he came over to "do" us right in the field. It was OK because we are just getting trims at the moment, no shoes. And by the way, he told #1 that I have among the best feet he has ever seen!

We were both pretty good for the farrier:

When Vidock was being done, Aral kept a very close watch. She is always terrified that someone will take him away.

Mama Hotesse and Violette were waiting just next to their field:

Violette enjoyed getting cuddles from #1 as she was being done:

Hotesse is the hardest to do as she was seldom done before, and always in stocks. Plus she has arthritis, so it's harder for her to stand on three legs. But she was really good, nonetheless.

She felt a lot better once the long growth had been trimmed away!

So that's us done until mid-December! Next time, it will be next to the house!
