As title. As part of the kicking myself up the A..... following on from my "wobble" I hacked Rose past the pigs this morning. As it's half term the farm shop was very busy, so lots to look at and a group of kids were feeding the pigs. I took the lead, gave her a boot when she hesitated and a small tap down the shoulder and she marched past. Friend's horse trailed in her wake. So that can be ticked off the list. She's obviously a bit of a towny girl because she's fine with lorries and cars but is a bit iffy with tractors pulling stuff or really big farm machinery, but she's not stupid and will listen. She's also a bit worried by sheep in the hedgerow close to her. Absolutely fine on her own now, not nappy and much more relaxed and left the other horse quite happily for the last part of the hack. She's actually a delight to hack and I am getting braver!
