Had a close call today.
Groomed her, moved onto others. Was grooming little gelding and she came up, wanting to be groomed some more.
I told her off. She moved away a little.
I decided to ask her to move her butt over, except she didn't agree with it.
IDK if she thought little gelding was nipping her hip or what, but she squealed, moved away a touch and up went her back feet. Halfassed, but still.
I pelted her with the only thing I had, the grooming brush. Then yelled and had her trot away from the area.
Got out my crop and continued to groom others, telling her to back away any time she came by.
Will keep it around for a bit while I work on remembering to stay further from her and telling her to give space.

Hmm, does it fit?? Donno, seems like it.
She got super humpy the first time I put it on her, so I started over as if she's never had one on.
Asked some FB groups about its fit, if they like it, I'll cinch it up and get to working with her about accepting it. I think she may buck some over it.

That middle pic of two horses above worked out at just the right time! It appears that there’s one head to two bodies. Like perfectly!

I love watching her progress!

Got stuff to expand the horse track around the pond!
58 new posts, two new rolls of hot tape, caps for the round pen, splicing clamps.

You can better see the ropes, now that the grass is greening up.

And returned the other saddle and got another.

Got two bags of caps, 10 in each. Turned out to be exactly how many I needed.
White ones cost more than yellow. Cap only cost nearly double vs cap w/hot tape clips! =/
