Aww, bless him. What a little star!
I used to ride my friends connemara in the medieval parade in our village. He used to stop dead in the middle of the procession if he saw a camera pointed his way!
One year we had some dragon dancers (don't ask me what they had to do with medieval times) and they used a fire extinguisher for smoke...right behind us! That was a slightly more interesting and lively ride for the first few minutes, till he got used to it!
wow, what a wonderful horse.
can't imagine my filly ever being able to do something like that.
she met her 1st flock of sheep today and nearly died of fright
Lovely pics - a horse that can deal with the sound of bagpipes is a very special one - there's carnage at the Dublin Horse Show every year when the pipers start up to lead the teams in for the Aga Khan Cup!
What a beautiful horse and a beautiful place to live!
I have actually done this myself, many moons ago.....
I used to be a carnival princess and one year decided to combine it with my love of horses and borrowed a friends part bred shire and rode round the carnival, in my big dress and everything, as opposed to the rest, sat on bonnets, trailers etc. I was only about 13 at the time as well and he was a super star!
