I slipped Gypsy's halter over her ears and led her outside. I VERY carefully led her past and blue tarp and she went by it. I don't even think she noticed!!!!! Then I lead her across really slowly and she sort of side-stepped passed it. We tried it a few more times and then I slowly led her up a trailer ramp. At first she REFUSED to go in but after seeing a few handfuls of sweet feed she went in slowly. I put her in a stall to get used to it and the shut the door. She reared so I went in the stall with her and then after a few minutes I went out. She eyed the door cautiously but didin't rear. I led her up the ramp a few more times until she got used to it. When we were done I put her in the paddock with all of the other foals.
Then I went to see Monk. This time he trotted over to me, unlike yesterday when he wouldin't come near me!!!!! I said hello to him and slipped a horse halter over his ears. I know donkeys don't wear them, but what the heck!!!!! I decided to use it because I am going to show him the farm.
I showed him around everywhere and when we were done the tour (lo) I put him in the field with Gypsy Lando. (Gypsy for short).
