Nope, that was a perfect explanation Bay. Thanks for making it easier to understand.

I don't want to make excuses for bad behavior ,but Syringa has been on edge for a few weeks. The moose are a source of concern to her. Not so much when they are here and visible, but they hang out in the woods across the road and she spends a lot of time staring and on alert watching. Some times you can see her legs tremble.
We are working things out. She's a pistol for sure! Love that darn horse.

She would probably come unwound if you were riding and came upon one. Not a good thought!

That is always in the back of our minds whenever we ride. Luke would be manageable. Syringa needs a lot of hours in a moose free arena until we get solid. Looks like the first ride is going to be pushed back until I have more confidence in her willingness to be my deputy and not the Sherriff. Watching a western right now...

I wonder if a LGD or two would make Syringa feel more comfortable and safe from the moose and whatever else is outside the pasture.

Yeah, definitely need an Armenian Gampr in my yard. Soon as I get the several thousand to fence the whole 10 acres I will jump right on that.
I seriously would love a Gampr though. Syringa loves dogs. (My good neighbor doing line work with her, at my other neighbors Gampr riddled property).

So sorry to read about your Christmas shiner, could of been worse for you ....and your horse if you had found something to beat the snot out of her when she got you.
Glad you are ok , happier that you got a handle on your girl now

Well if they have THAT many they probably wouldn't notice if one or two disappeared
Maybe they wouldn't mind if you took a couple over to your place since you would be paying for the food.

 

[thistlebloom]

I'd definitely need permission since it could be hard to disguise them as sheep.

Glad you're ok. Even my sweet Richie has taken the time to remind me he is a horse and to stick to his language at times. Some are much more forgiving than others.

So sorry to read about your Christmas shiner,

Well at least it's a festive red and green!
