Pony Horse takes savvy
The ponied horse’s head is to be right at your knee. We are playing like a
foal is running beside his momma…that’s where the foal stays.
Another thing ponying is good for…if you have the SAVVY (which I don’t) is
for cross mares. Velvet had started snaking her head and occasionally
kicking out at other horses that she hates. At one point, she even attacked
a few horses when we were just standing around. So, as part of her
reeducation into politeness…Jenny started ponying her. When she became an evil witch, life wasn’t very nice for the ponied horse. After she improved a
bit, she got to be the riding horse and ponied the other horse. At the end,
Jenny took another evil mare and ponied them together. That improved the
disposition of both of them.
Don’t try this at home!!!
Velvet hasn’t attacked or kicked at anyone in a long time. She still hates
some other horses, but now just puts her ears back…and then I just ask her
to do whatever we are doing with more energy!
I remember the good old days when she was a cute, loving filly!
