Dogs are nothing to worry about. We are used to dogs.
I rode Sue today at home. We went further than we ever have before. We were accompanied by our nice Lena dog. She’s a senior German Shepherd. Sue and I were doing our ground games when I noticed that Lena was trying to herd Sue. Lena has never done that before. I yelled at her and she slunk away.
Sue and I were at the furtherest away from home than we ever have been. Lena was right besides us, circulating amoung the great smells. Lena has never gone on one of our trail rides before. Well, Sue and I have never been out of our property. Evidentially, Lena has been waiting a long time for this. She was having a great time.
We have a turf farm to ride on…vast vista of green grass.
Suddenly, Sue tensed up and went tight. Her rear end bunched up. I heard a thud and a wimper. That wretched Lena was trying to bite Sue’s back legs and Sue let loose an easy kick. It connected and Lena learned a lesson.
My gentle Lena was trying her best to get me killed! I do not need a dog biting Sue’s rear feet. Good GAD!
We made it back home. Sue was in mid right brain after that. When she increased her speed above a flat foot walk, we turned a little circle. That made her come back into her left brain. We really didn’t have to do this very long. After a while, Sue was able to walk calmly.
By then, the flies had attacked. I was starting to breathe flies. I hate that. We quit and had a fine ride!
