Shazam and STormy both had to prance/jig to get thru it. Just a walk and the snow brings you to a stop. Shazam's every move is really big and bouncy, so his prance/jig is truely hard for me to sit. Stormy's is much smoother. I sympathize. But you have to appreciate that than a horse that doesn't want to go or has no energy.<br /><br />MichelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7085705562122895787.post-76298139403943248512010-02-20T07:42:49.474-06:002010-02-20T07:42:49.474-06:00It almost sounds like the uncertainty of the footi...It almost sounds like the uncertainty of the footing due to the snow had her bothered. It sure gives them a workout doesn't it? I was worried I'd taken Phebes to far out yesterday because she was huffing and puffing so bad at one point. I wanted to stop and just let her rest, but then she'd start pawing and it seemed she was thinking about rolling in the snow....so we kept movin!<br /><br />I so wish you were my neighbor, we'd have fun :)<br /><br />~E.G.All Who Wanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811193190492037859noreply@blogger.com
