V&H Vendredi

 

Heloise: Youthful neighs, everyone! Heloise here! Yesterday, we got our hooficures and #1 came to be with us and give us lots of apples. The weather wasn't great, but nobody around here is complaining about rain! It makes the grass grow!

The nice farrier. Mr. P, came to get us.




I got done first. It was just a trim so it didn't take very long.


The rain made my coat look really shiny!


And then it was my big Sis  Violette's turn



Until this recent rain, the soil had been really dry and hard, which is tough on the hoof. Here is a pic showing one foot done and one yet to be done. You can see the difference!


And another:



We were both very good girls!


We continue to get regular news of the Big V. He is having a rest at the moment because he has another big wedding at some chateau coming up at the weekend!


Have a great weekend, everyone!

    You are both very good girls with Violette following you across the field. We badly need rain with the grass in the fields burning up. Thankfully it was a good May and plenty of hay was made.

    How nice to have new shoes and cleaned up horse paws - and trade for APPLES!

    Charlee: "We cats have to get our feet trimmed regularly too! Mama does it with a little clipper. She doesn't give us apples, though."
    Lulu: "Do you WANT apples?"
    Charlee: "Well no. But still."
