The smallest project has started! 😁

Sometimes you forget the obvious...like that the new horse is TINY & the trough you have is TALL...
Yeah...had to buy a new one.

300 gallons, its massive! I wish it was summer so I could soak in it!!

Almost the same height...metal ones play visual tricks!
So, raised the ground instead...19" now instead of 25".

Training has been minimal. She doesn't always lead well & I'm not the type to get a halter/lead just to move a horse. So, we've been working on leading by the chin & a hand behind the pole/ears. A tug & kisses, standing at her side. If I'm ahead, she wouldn't move before.
The pictures in the above post didn't load in order. I can now just ask her to follow. Tried to show her the new water trough, but it was a bit much for her. Video instead, lol.

[Mini Horses]

Always had trouble with shippers and minis.....water buckets lower, bottoms of dividers had to have extensions in trailers. Then foals. I was raising them, so bought shorter tubs or no one could drink. It's been helpful as I now have short and taller containers in all fields. Full sized goats and tiny kids. Good job there.

[Palomino]

What a pretty pintaloosa! I love that color pattern. And she is not at all fat compared to one of my minis!!
I'm sure she's happy to be with you!

Had to put up a separate net just for Pavlov because Oreo was being a turd!
