New Clothes!

The wet is here so it is time for turn out sheets to keep off the rain and be a breaker for a bit of the wind and cold. Although we have practiced having a sheet put on and taken off months ago, I had to do some refresher work with him to be okay with it again. When I got the sheet all buckled on, he did a lot of looking around at hims self and picking at his shoulders. After a night of sleeping in it and a day of turnout, he seems to have settled into the idea that the sheet is staying with him and it is okay.

eehhh....what have you put on me?!

Although... I got a report that he did randomly run through the wire fence today. He is totally fine and only has a few minor scrapes and he only ended up in the next field over. The two geldings were happy to have him over for a visit and after they all sniffed noses to say hello, they all went to peacefully grazing.

Crashing through the fence is  very unlike him; he respects fences, especially hot electric ones! I suspect the wind picked up and rustled his blanket, it scared him and he took off running and the noise got worse so he kept running. 

Well.. he must have gotten over it to get back to grazing...
